A parallel-plate capacitor, with air between the plates, is connected across a voltage source. This source establishes a potential difference between the plates by placing charge of magnitude 4.15 × 10-6 C on each plate

The space between the plates is then filled with a dielectric material, with a dielectric constant of 7.74. What must the magnitude of the charge on each capacitor plate now be, to produce the same potential difference between the plates as before?
