<div>The plates of a parallel plate capacitor are charged upto 100V.A 2mm thick plate is inserted between the plates then to maintain the same potential difference,the distance between the plates is increased by 1.6mm.Then what is the dielectric constant of the plate??</div>

As the dielectric constant for metals is infinity and if we use it as a dielectric between capacitor then it's capacitance will increase infinity time then also we don't use it as a dielectric Why?
