A parallel plate capacitor a air between its plates having plate area of 6*10^-3 m^2 and separation between them 3 mm is connected to a 100 V battery. Explain what would happen when a 3 mm thick mica sheet (of dielectric constant = 6) were inserted between the plates, while the voltage supply remained connected.
