Part A.
Energy stored in the capacitor is given by:
Uc = (1/2)*C*V^2 = (1/2)*C*(Q/C)^2 = Q^2/(2C)
C = Capacitance of capacitor = e0*A/d
A = Area of plate = pi*D^2/4
D = diameter of plate = 4.2 cm = 0.042 m
d = plate separation = 1.0 mm = 1.0*10^-3 m
So,
C = 8.854*10^-12*pi*0.042^2/(4*1.0*10^-3) = 12.27*10^-12 F
Q = charge stored on capacitor = C*V = 12.27*10^-12*170 = 2.086*10^-9 C
Now since battery is removed, So charge on capacitor will remain constant. And
Uc = (2.086*10^-9)^2/(2*12.27*10^-12)
Uc = 17.73*10^-8 J
Part B.
Work-done = Change in potential energy stored
W = dU = Uf - Ui
Ui = 17.73*10^-8 J
Uf = Q^2/(2*Cf)
Cf = e0*A/d1 = 8.854*10^-12*pi*0.042^2/(4*2.0*10^-3) = 6.133*10^-12 F
So,
Uf = (2.086*10^-9)^2/(2*6.13*10^-12) = 35.46*10^-8 J
And
W = 35.46*10^-8 - 17.73*10^-8
W = 17.73*10^-8 J

Two circular metal plates with radii of 10.0 cm are separated by a distance of 0.200 mm. They are connected to the terminals of a car battery (treat as 12.0 V). (d) You now return the plates to their original separation and allow a long time to go by so that the capacitor is fully charged. You then disconnect the battery from them. Again, using insulated plates, you pull the plates apart until they are separated by 0.400 mm. Now...
