A parallel plate capacitor has a dielectric slab of dielectric constant K between its plates that covers 1/3 of the area of its plates, as shown in the figure. The total capacitance of the capacitor is C while that of the portion with dielectric in between is C 1 . When the capacitor is charged, the plate area covered by the dielectric gets charge Q 1 and the rest of the area gets charge Q 2 . Choose the correct option/options, ignoring edge effects.
