The capacitor plates are fixed on an inclined plane and connected to a battery of emf E. The capacitor plates have plate area a, length l, and the distance between them is d. A dielectric slab of mass m and dielectric constant K is inserted into the capacitor and tied to mass M by a massless string as shown in the figure. Find the value of M for which the slab will stay in equilibrium. There is no friction between slab and plates.
For equilibrium, we have
T = Mg
