Question

A capacitor consists of a set of 2 parallel plates of area Aseparated by a distance d. This capacitor is connected to abattery that maintains a constant potential difference between theplates. If the separation between the plates is doubled, themagnitude of the charge on the plates will A) quadruple B) not change C) double D) be cut in fourth E) be cut in half WHY?
