$h_1 = 2h_2 = 3h_3$
$h_1 = \frac{h_2}3 = \frac{h_3}5$
$h_2 = 3h_1$ and $3h_2 = 3h_2 $
$h_1 = h_2 = h_3$

The plates of a parallel plate capacitor are separated by d. Two slabs of different dielectric constant \(K_1\) and \(K_2\) with thickness \(d/2\) and \(d/2\) respectively are inserted in the capacitor. Due to this, the capacitance becomes two times larger than when there is nothing between the plates. If \(K_1 = 1.25 K_2\), the value of \(K_2\) is :
