Two air-filled parallel-plate capacitors with capacitances C1 and C2 are connected in parallel to a battery that has a voltage of 32.0 V; C1 = 4.00 μF and C2 = 6.00 μF.

 

A) What is the total positive charge stored in the two capacitors?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.

 

B) While the capacitors remain connected to the battery, a dielectric with dielectric constant 5.00 is inserted between the plates of capacitor C1, completely filling the space between them. Then what is the total positive charge stored on the two capacitors?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
 
C) Does the insertion of the dielectric cause the total charge stored to increase or decrease?
