Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Isolated capacitor ⇒ Q = constant separation d increase ⇒ C = decrease Q = CV ⇒ V = increase

Q. A parallel plate capacitor is charged and then isolated. On increasing the plate separation

Charge Potential Capacitance

a. remains constant remains constant decreases

b. remains constant increases decreases

c. remains constant decreases increases

d. increases increases decreases

d

Isolated capacitor $\Rightarrow Q$ = constant
separation d increase
$\Rightarrow C =$ decrease
$Q = C V \Rightarrow V =$ increase

	Charge	Potential	Capacitance
a.	remains constant	remains constant	decreases
b.	remains constant	increases	decreases
c.	remains constant	decreases	increases
d.	increases	increases	decreases
