On a parallel plate capacitor following operations can be performed .
P - connect the capacitor to a battery of emf V
Q - disconnect the battery
R - reconnect the battery with polarity reversed
S - insert a dielectric slab in the capacitor

A

In XYZ (perform X, then Y, then Z). The stored electric energy remains unchanged and no thermal energy is developed.

B

The charge appearing on the capacitor is greater after the action XWY than after the action XYW.

C

The electric energy stored in the capacitor is greater after the action WXY than after the action XYW.

Passage II We have two parallel plate capacitors P and Q having same capacitance C_(0) . P is connected to a battery of potential difference V and it remains connected to the battery even after the charging is over. Q is also connected to a battery of the same potential difference V but after the charging gets over, it is disconnected from the battery. Answer the following questions: Potential difference between the plates of P, when a dielectric slab is inserted in between the plates
