Detailed Solution

Capacitance of the capacitor, C=QV

After inserting the dielectric, new capacitance C=K.C

New potential difference 

V1=VKui=12CV2=Q22Cuf=Q22f=Q22K=C2V22KC=uiKΔu=ufui=12CV21K1

As the capacitor is isolated, so charge will remain conserved p.d. between two plates of the capacitor =QKC=VK
