Capacitance — UPSC CSE 1986 Physics PYQ

The parallel plates of a capacitor have an area of 2000\text{ cm}^2 each and are 1\text{ cm} apart. They are originally at a potential difference of 3,000\text{ volts}. When a dielectric is introduced covering the whole space between the plates, the potential difference becomes 1000\text{ volts}. Calculate the capacitance of the capacitor before and after insertion of the dielectric. What is the dielectric constant of the dielectric?
