Assertion: The electrostatic force between the plates of a charged isolated capacitor decreases when a dielectric fills the whole space between the plates.
Reason: The electric field between the plates of a charged isolated capacitor increases when a dielectric fills the whole space between the plates.

$A$ voltmeter reads $4 \ V$ when connected to a parallel plate capacitor with air as a dielectric. When a dielectric slab is introduced between the plates for the same configuration,the voltmeter reads $2 \ V$. What is the dielectric constant of the material?

In a parallel plate air capacitor of plate separation $d$,a dielectric slab of thickness $t$ is introduced between the plates $(t < d)$. The capacitance becomes one-third of the original value. The dielectric constant of the slab will be
