$A$ slab of dielectric constant $K$ has the same cross-sectional area as the plates of a parallel plate capacitor and thickness $\frac{3}{4}d$,where $d$ is the separation of the plates. The capacitance of the capacitor when the slab is inserted between the plates will be (Given $C_{0} =$ capacitance of capacitor with air as medium between plates):

  • A
    $\frac{4KC_{0}}{3+K}$
  • B
