Aaah, I tried Mathematics and Engineering. Didn't think to put it up there :P

Oh well, the question is this:

"The insulation in a plate-capasitor consists of two layers with a thickness of 1 and 2 mm, and a relative permittivity of 4 and 6, respectively. Calculate the electric field strength in the thinnest layer when the capasitor is connected to a voltage source of 5000 V."
