If the capacitor is kept connected with the battery and then the dielectric slab is inserted between the plates, then what will be the change in the charge, the capacitance the potential difference, the electric field an the stored energy?

An air core parallel plate capacitor has capacitance C. It is completely filled with a dielectric slab having dielectric constant 2 K. The capacitor is now connected to a battery of emf V. It was planned to replace the dielectric slab of the capacitor while it remains connected to the battery. Another dielectric slab (which fits exactly between the plates) is inserted slowly so as to push out the earlier slab. The new slab has a dielectric constant K [see Figure (a) to (c)] (a) By energy considerations calculate the mechanical work that must be done against the electric forces in order to complete the process. (b) Looking at the expression of mechanical work obtained in (a), tell what was the direction of force applied by the external agent - from left to right (as indicated by F_(1) in Figure) or from right to left (as indicated by F_(2) ). (c) Which dielectric slab experienced higher force of attraction from the capacitor plates during the process ?

Two identical capacitors are connected as shown in the figure. A dielectric slab is introduced between the plates of one of the capacitors so as to fill the gap, the battery remaining connected. The charge on each capacitor will be (charge on each condenser is q_(0) , k= dielectric constant). .

Two capacitors are connected in parallel to a battery. If a dielectric medium is inserted between the plates of one of the capacitors then the enegry stored in the system will increase. On inserting dielectric medium between the plates of a capacitors, its capacity increases.
