An uncharged parallel plate capacitor having a dielectric of constant $K$ is connected to a similar air-cored parallel plate capacitor charged to a potential $V$. The two capacitors share charges and the common potential becomes $V^{\prime}$. The dielectric constant $K$ is

  • A
    $\frac{V^{\prime}-V}{V^{\prime}+V}$
  • B
    $\frac{V^{\prime}-V}{V^{\prime}}$
  • C
    $\frac{V^{\prime}-V}{V}$
  • D
    $\frac{V-V^{\prime}}{V^{\prime}}$
