A Parallel Plate Capacitor of Capacitance C₀ Has Plates of Area

question 23

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 capacitance of the capacitor and the magnitude of the charge on the plates are

• A) \(\frac { 1 } { 2 }\) C₀, \(\frac { 1 } { 2 }\) Q₀
• B) \(\frac { 1 } { 2 }\) C₀,Q₀
• C)C₀,Q₀
• D)2C₀,Q₀
• E)2C₀,2Q₀
