Question Image

Let the electric field due to applied external source (battery) between the parallel plates of capacitor, be E0.After insertion of dielectric the electric field in the material of dielectric slab) present inside capacitor,

E=E0K …… (1)

From, the given arrangement we infer that there are three regions in which dielectric material is not present.
Hence in these regions, E= E0
Given: 
K2 > K1 Therefore in the two region which contains dielectric slabs,
 E1=E0K1 = constant
E2=E0K2= constant

E2<E1<E0

Thus following graph is best representation of E vs d.
