Let,
Given:-
After the switch is closed, the new distance between the plates is given by,
And the increased in the capacitance is given by,
Therefore, the charge on each plate is given by,
(a) Charge collected on each plate :-
(b) Spring constant :-
The force on each capacitor plate is given by,
Where,
This is the force which pulls the plates together. This must be equal and opposite to the force on each plate due to it attached spring.
Since the plate separation is decreased by the factor of 0.500, each spring will have decreased length by d/4 ,therefore, the restoring force is given by,
Therefore,
or
This is the value of the spring constant for each spring.
