Question

Two identical parallel plate capacitors A and B(parallel)are connected to a batteryof
V volts with the switch S closed. The switch is now opened and the free
space between the plates of the capacitors is filled with a dielectric of
dielectric constant K. Find the ratio of the total electrostatic energy stored
in both capacitors before and after the introduction of the
dielectric.

Solution

Answer = k/1 not 1/k we have to take charge constant because switch is off so no current will flow and charge will not change.
