Potential difference and energy stored

(A) When a charged capacitor is disconnected from the battery and a glass slab (dielectric material) is introduced between the plates,the charge $(Q)$ remains constant because the circuit is open.The capacitance $(C)$ increases as $C = KC_0$,where $K$ is the dielectric constant.The potential difference $(V)$ decreases as $V = \frac{V_0}{K}$ because $V = \frac{Q}{C}$ and $C$ increases while $Q$ is constant.The stored energy $(U)$ decreases as $U = \frac{Q^2}{2C} = \frac{U_0}{K}$ because $C$ increases while $Q$ is constant.Therefore,the potential difference and the stored energy decrease.
