Solution

The correct option is A ϵ0A{K1t1+K2t2}
We know that the capacitance of the dielectric medium, when introduced between capacitor, is given by C=KE0Ad where A is the cross-sectional area, d is the thickness and k is the dielectric constant.
Now Capacity of 1st medium C1=K1E0At1 and Capacity of 2nd mediumC2=K2E0At2
Now as the dielectric medium are connected in series thus the total capacity is given as C1+C2==K1E0At1+K2E0At2=E0A{K1t1+K2t2}
