A parallel plate air capacitor of capacitance C is connected to a cell of emF V and then disconnected from it. A dielectric slab of dielectric constant K , which can just fill the air gap of the capacitor, is now inserted in it. Which of the following is incorrect ?

Assertion: A parallel plate capacitor is charged to a potential difference 100 V , and disconnected from the voltage source. A slab of dielectric is then slowly inserted between the plates. Compared to the energy before the slab was inserted, the energy stored in the capacitor with the dielectric is decreased. Reason: When we insert a dielectric the plates of a capacitor, the induced tend to draw in the dielectric into the field (just as neutral). we resist this force while slowly inserting the dielectric, and thus do negative work on the system, removing electrostatic energy from the system.
