A potential difference of V exists between two plates of a parallel-plate capacitor with capacitance C. A dielectric with a dielectric constant of K is then placed between the plates of the capacitor. What is the energy stored in the capacitor?

C is the inifial capacitanceWhen dielectric medium is introduced then. new capacitanceC' = kCenergy stored is given by:E= 12C'V2 = kCV22
