Capacitor With Dielectrics: Practice Problem & Solution

Short Solution (Best for NEET):

To solve this problem, we apply the core principles of Capacitor With Dielectrics. Understanding the underlying formula is key to arriving at the correct answer below:

As the capacitor remains connected to the battery, the potential difference \(V\) remains constant. The stored energy is \(U = \frac{1}{2} C V^2\). Since slipping a dielectric slab increases the capacitance \(C\), the energy increases correspondingly.
