Problem

A 6.0 μF6.0\,\mu\text{F} capacitor is charged to a potential difference of 200 V200\,\text{V} and then disconnected from the battery. A dielectric material with dielectric constant κ=3.0\kappa = 3.0 is later inserted completely between the plates. Determine the energy stored in the capacitor after the dielectric is inserted.
