$A$ parallel plate air capacitor is charged up to $100 \,V$. $A$ plate $2 \,mm$ thick is inserted between the plates. Then, to maintain the same potential difference, the distance between the plates is increased by $1.6 \,mm$. The dielectric constant of the thick plate is

The distance between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is $0.05\, m$. An electric field of $3 \times 10^4\, V/m$ is established between the plates. The capacitor is disconnected from the battery,and an uncharged metal plate of thickness $0.01\, m$ is inserted. If a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $K = 2$ is inserted instead of the metal plate,what will be the potential difference in $kV$?
