A parallel-plate capacitor with a plate separation d has a capacitance C0 in the absence of a dielectric. A slab of the dielectric material of dielectric constant κ and thickness d/3 is then inserted between the plates as in Figure P16.61a. Show that the capacitance of this partially filled capacitor is given by

 

Hint: Treat the system as two capacitors connected in series as in Figure P16.61b, one with a dielectric in it and the other one empty.
