Suppose the battery in Problem remains connected while the plates are pulled apart. What are the answers, then to parts (a)-(d) after the plates have been pulled apart?

Problem:

A parallel-plate air capacitor is made by using two plates 16 cm square, spaced 3.7 mm apart. It is connected to a 12-V battery. (a) What is the capacitance? (b) What is the charge on each plate? (c) What is the electric Held between the plates? (d) What the energy stored in the capacitor? (e) If the battery is disconnected and then the plates are pulled apart to a separation of 7.4 mm are the answers to parts (a)-(d)?
