Physics · Electrostatics
A parallel plate capacitor is charged by a battery. The battery is then disconnected and the plates of the charged capacitor are moved farther apart. In this process:
- 1the charge on the capacitor increases.
- 2the potential difference across the plates decreases.
- 3the capacitance of the capacitor increases.
- 4the electrostatic energy stored in the capacitor increases.✓
Correct answer
the electrostatic energy stored in the capacitor increases.
