So I know how to get the potential energy before the dielectric is removed. But when it is removed, charge goes from the plates back to the battery, making the charge with and without the dielectric equal. So really, my main question is this: does the charge traveling back into the battery...

A parallel-plate capacitor filled with dielectric K=3.4 is connected to a 100 V battery. After charging, the dielectric is removed and the battery remains connected. What would be the work required to remove the dielectric.I've done a problem similar to the one above, however, the battery was...
