A parallel plate air capacitor is charged to a potential difference of V volts. After disconnecting the charging battery the distance between the plates of the capacitor is increased using an isulating handle. As a result the potential difference between the plates

In a parallel plate capacitor, how is the capacitance affected, when without changing the charge, the distance between the plates is doubled.

A capacitor with a capacitane of 50muF is connected to 200V, if the distance between its plates is halved, what will be the potential between the plates and what will be the change in energy stored in it?

A parallel plate capacitor of plate area A and plate separation d is charged to potential difference V and then the battery is disconnected. A slab of dielectric constant K is then inserted between the plates of the capacitor so as to fill the space between the plates. If Q, E and W denote respectively, the magnitude of charge on each plate, the electric field between the plates (after the slab is inserted), and work done on the system, in question, in the process of inserting the slab,
