When a dielectric slab of dielectric constant K is
inserted in it, the charge Q is conserved. The
capacitance becomes K times the original
capacitance.
The voltage becomes

Outside the dielectrics the field remains
constant.
Inside the dielectrics the field decrease by k times.
As k k 2 1 the field in the second slab is less than
the field in the first slab.
