When a dielectric slab is introduced between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor that is connected to a battery,the new charge on the plates is:

  • A
    less than the initial charge.
  • B
    equal to the initial charge.
  • C
    greater than the initial charge.
  • D
    dependent on the nature of the material inserted.
