Three identical capacitors $C_1, C_2$ and $C_3$ have a capacitance of $1.0 \mu F$ each and they are uncharged initially. They are connected in a circuit as shown in the figure and $C_1$ is then filled completely with a dielectric material of relative permittivity $\varepsilon_r$. The cell electromotive force (emf) $V_0 = 8 \ V$. First,the switch $S_1$ is closed while the switch $S_2$ is kept open. When the capacitor $C_3$ is fully charged,$S_1$ is opened and $S_2$ is closed simultaneously. When all the capacitors reach equilibrium,the charge on $C_3$ is found to be $5 \mu C$. The value of $\varepsilon_r = . . . . $

$A$ parallel plate capacitor of plate area $A$ and plate separation $d$ is charged to a potential $V$ and then the battery is disconnected. $A$ slab of dielectric constant $k$ is then inserted between the plates of the capacitor so as to fill the space between the plates. If $Q$,$E$,and $W$ denote respectively the magnitude of charge on each plate,the electric field between the plates (after the slab is inserted),and the work done on the system in the process of inserting the slab,then state the incorrect relation from the following:
