As we learned

When dielectric insert between the charges -

F_{med}=\frac{F_{air}}{K}=\frac{1q_{1}q_{2}}{4\pi \varepsilon _{0}kr^{2}}

- wherein

 

 In the presence of medium force becomes \frac{1}{K}times

 


Option 1)

4F\;

Option 2)

\; 2F\;

Option 3)

\; \frac{F}{2}\,

Option 4)

\, \frac{F}{4}
