    For changing the capacitance of a given parallel plate capacitor, a dielectric material of dielectric constant $K$ is used, which has the same area as the plates of the capacitor. The thickness of the dielectric slab is $\frac{3}{4} d$, where $'d'$ is the separation between the plates of parallel plate capacitor. The new capacitance $(C')$ in terms of original capacitance $\left( C _{0}\right)$ is given by the following relation

    Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.

    Assertion $A$: The potential ( $V$ ) at any axial point, at $2 \mathrm{~m}$ distance ( $r$ ) from the centre of the dipole of dipole moment vector $\vec{P}$ of magnitude, $4 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{C} \mathrm{m}$, is $\pm 9 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~V}$.

    (Take $\frac{1}{4 \pi \in_0}=9 \times 10^9 \mathrm{Sl}$ units)

    Reason $R$: $V= \pm \frac{2 P}{4 \pi \in_0 r^2}$, where $r$ is the distance of any axial point, situated at $2 \mathrm{~m}$ from the centre of the dipole.

    In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
