• A)If we double the charges on the plates to ±20 µC,the capacitance of the capacitor will also double.
• B)If we double the charges on the plates to ±20 µC,the potential difference across the plates will also double.
• C)If we double the charges on the plates to ±20 µC,the capacitance of the capacitor will not change.
• D)If we double the charges on the plates to ±20 µC,the potential difference across the plates will decrease by a factor of two.
