The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is 16microF . When a glass slab is placed between the plates the pd reduces to 1\8 of the original value. What is dielectric constant of glass?

Initially Q=CV. After introducing glass slab ,
Q=kCV/8. Equating 2 equations ,
We get  k=8. Hope the steps are clear .
