A parallel-plate capacitor that has no dielectric in the space between the plates has a capacitance C0 and a plate separation d. Two dielectric slabs that have dielectric constants of κ1 and κ2, respectively, are then inserted between the plates as shown in the figure. Each slab has a thickness ½d and has area A, the same ...
