The left plate \(A\) of an air capacitor is connected to the positive terminal while the right plate \(B\) is connected to the negative terminal of a cell of voltage \(V_0.\) Assume that the plate area is \(A,\) and the plate separation is \(d.\) If a slab of dielectric constant \(K\) is inserted into the space between the plates, the electric field in the dielectric will be: (compared to the air capacitor)
                   
 
1. more.
2. less.
3. equal.
4. more or less or equal depending on the value of \(K\).
