If the dielectric constant and dielectric strength be denoted by \(k\) and \(x\) respectively, then a material suitable for use as a dielectric in a capacitor must have:
1. high \(k\) and high \(x\).
2. high \(k\) and low \(x\).
3. low \(k\) and low \(x\).
4. low \(k\) and high \(x\).

(2) From Q to P

(3) Neither the charge will flow from P to Q nor from Q to P

(4) The information is incomplete
