Question
Choices:
equal to, less than, greater than, increase, decrease, no change
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 SR is a single capacitor. The charge on plate S is represented by Qs. The capacitors are charged so that the potential (voltage) at A, V y equals 13 volts. For each of the statements A, initia choose the proper response. V-0 If the plate separation for capacitor UT increases, the charge on Qs will Qs QR is zero The electric field between plates S and Ris that between plates U and T QU is Qs. If the plate separation for capacitor SR decreases, the energy stored in UT will The voltage across capacitor SR is that across capacitor UT. The energy stored in capacitor SR is the energy stored in capacitor UT.
