Why is the electric field in a capacitor after introduction of dielectric= (sigma -sigma p)/ epsilon .
Where sigma is surface charge density and sigma p is surface charge density of the polarised dielectric.

Expert Answer:
Because the electric field
polarizes the dielectric as a result charges are induced on the surface of the dielectric which induces electric field
. But the induced electric field
is in opposite direction to the original electric field E. Therefore the net electric field is given by
