Super short and brief Multiple Choice, please provide explanations too so I can understand this stuff!
1.A parallel-plate capacitor (air-filled) is connected to a constant voltage battery. If the battery is disconnected and then the separation between the capacitor plates is doubled, the energy stored in the capacitor will
a)increase by a factor of 4
b)double
c)remain unchanged
d)drop to one-half its previous value
e)drop to one-fourth its previous value.
2. A large conducting sphere with radius 10 cm has a charge Q. It is then attached by a wire to a small uncharged conducting sphere with radius 5 cmthat is far away. What are the charges on the spheresafter they are connected?
a) qlarge=2/3Q, qsmall=1/3Q
b) qlarge=1/3Q, qsmall=2/3Q
*explain why you do Q-q for the 10cm charge but only q for the 5cm*
1) Energy = 0.5CV^2
C = Aeo / d
so when d is doubled ,
capacitance will be halved
So energy will also be halved
so option d) drop to one half is current answer

explain why please A parallel-plate capacitor is made of two conducting plates of area A separated by a distance d. The capacitor carries a charge Q and is initially connected to a battery that maintains a constant potential difference between the plates. The battery is then disconnected from the plates and the separation between the plates is doubled. ) Which of the following remains constant? Voltage across the capacitor Capacitance of the capacitor Charge on the capacitor Submit (Survey Question)...
1. Identical capacitors A and B are fully charged by the same battery. Capacitor A is disconnected from the battery while capacitor B remains connected to it. Identical dielectric slabs are inserted between the plates of the capacitors. Which of the following is true? 2. A parallel plate capacitor (shown) is fully charged and remains connected to the battery. A conducting plate is inserted into the gap between the two plates, partially filling the gap. Which of the following is...
