The sketch below is a side view of two capacitors consisting of parallel plates

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 two letters, for example RU 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 27 volts. For each of the statements choose the proper response.

equal to, less than, greater than, increase, decrease, no change???
