A Parallel Plate Capacitor of Capacitance C₀ Has Plates of Area

question 56

Multiple Choice

A parallel plate capacitor of capacitance C₀ has plates of area A with separation d between them.When it is connected to a battery of voltage V₀,it has charge of magnitude Q₀ on its plates.The plates are pulled apart to a separation 2d while the capacitor remains connected to the battery.After the plates are 2d apart,the magnitude of the charge on the plates and the potential difference between them are

• A) Q₀, V₀
• B) Q₀,V₀
• C)Q₀,V₀
• D)2Q₀,V₀
• E)2Q₀,2V₀
