A parallel plate capacitor has a dielectric slab of dielectric constant K between its plates that covers `1//3` of the area of its plates, as shown in the figure. The total capacitance of the capacitor is C while that of the portion with dielectric in between is `C_1`. When the capacitor is charged, the plate area covered by the dielectric gets charge `Q_1` and the rest of the area gets charge `Q_2`. The electric field in the dielectric is `E_1` and that in the other portion is `E_2`. Choose the correct option/options, ignoring edge effects.

A

`(E_(1))/(E_(2))=1`

B

`(E_(1))/(E_(2))=(1)/(K)`

C

`(Q_(1))/(Q_(2))=(3)/(K)`

D

`( C)/(C_(1))=(2+K)/(K)`
