A parallel plate capacitar, of capacitance, `20 mu F`, is connected to a 100 V supply. After some time, the battery is disconnected , and the space, between the plates of the capacitor is filled with a dielectric, of dielectric constant 5. Calculate the energy stored in the capacitar (i) before (ii)after dielectric has been put in between its plates.
