Which quantity will change on increasing the separation between the plates of a charged parallel plate capacitor ?
- A Energy density between the plates
- B Charge on the capacitor
- C Potential difference between the plates of the capacitor
- D Electric field between the plates of the capacitor
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Potential difference between the plates of the capacitor
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Since \(d\) increases, \(C = \frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}\) decreases. As \(Q\) is constant, \(V = \frac{Q}{C}\) increases. Potential difference between the plates of the capacitor
