Detailed Solution
In air the potential difference between the plates Vair =σε0⋅d …(i)In the presence of partially filled medium potential difference between the plates Vm=σε0(d−t+tK) …(ii)Potential difference between the plates with dielectric medium and increased distance is Vm'=σε0(d+d')−t+tK …(iii)According to question Vair=Vm' which gives K=tt−d'Hence K=22−1.6=5
