Problem
Two identical parallel-plate capacitors are each charged so that the same magnitude of charge Q resides on their plates. Capacitor A has air between its plates, while capacitor B is completely filled with a dielectric material of constant κ=4. Without performing any calculations, indicate which capacitor has the larger magnitude of electric field between its plates and briefly explain your reasoning (one or two sentences).
