Dielectrics: A 6.0-?F air-filled capacitor is connected across a 100-V potential source (a battery). After the battery fully charges the capacitor, it is left connected and the capacitor is immersed in transformer oil, which has a dielectric constant of 4.5. How much additional charge flows from the battery onto the capacitor during this process?
A. 1.2 mC B. 1.7 mC C. 2.1 mC D. 2.5 mC
