Question

Consider two oppositely charged, isolated parallel plates separated by distance D, with capacitance C, charge Q, and stored energy U. D is small compared to the dimensions of the plates. For each statement below, select "True" or "False".

True False  When D is doubled, U is unchanged.
True False  Inserting a dielectric decreases U.
True False  Increasing D, leaves the E field unchanged.
True False  Inserting a dielectric decreases C.
True False  Inserting a dielectric increases Q.
True False  When D is halved, Q is halved.
True False  When D is doubled, C is doubled.

Explanation / Answer

1) False
2) False
3) True
4) false
