Question

The sketch below is a side view of two capacitors consisting of parallel plates in air. The capacitor plates are equal in area but the plate separation differs as shown. Individual capacitors are specified with twò letters, for example RS is a single capacitor. The charge on plate R is represented by QR. The capacitors are charged so that the potential (voltage) at A, VA, initially equals 17 volts. For each öf the statements choose the proper response V-0 The electric field between plates T and U is that between plates R and S. ORQs is.. zero. The voltage across capacitor TU is.. that across capacitor RS. QR is QT The energy stored in capacitor TU is the energy stored in capacitor RS. If the plate separation for capacitor TU increases, the energy stored in RS will If the plate separation for capacitor TU decreases, the charge on QR will
