Q.

Two thin dielectric slabs of dielectric constants K1 and K2(K1<K2) are inserted between plates of a parallel plate capacitor, as shown in the figure. The variation of electric field E between the plates with distance d as measured from plate P is correctly shown by         [2014]

The electric field inside the dielectrics will be less than the electric field in vacuum. The electric field inside the dielectric could not be zero. As K2>K1, the drop in electric field for K2 dielectric must be more than K1.
