Problem 80GP
A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery that maintains a constant potential difference between the plates. If the spacing between the plates is doubled, how is the magnitude of charge on the plates affected?
ANSWER:
Solution 80 GP:
Step 1 of 1:-
Here, we have to find how the magnitude of the charge will be affected if the distance between the plates of the capacitor will be doubled and the potential difference between the plates remain fixed.
We know that,
