$A$ parallel plate capacitor has plate area $A$ and separation $d$. It is charged to a potential difference $V_0$. The charging battery is disconnected and the plates are pulled apart to three times the initial separation. The work required to separate the plates is

  • A
    $\frac{3\varepsilon_0 AV_0^2}{d}$
  • B
    $\frac{\varepsilon_0 AV_0^2}{2d}$
  • C
    $\frac{\varepsilon_0 AV_0^2}{3d}$
  • D
    $\frac{\varepsilon_0 AV_0^2}{d}$

An air-filled parallel plate capacitor has a uniform electric field $E$ in the space between the plates. If the distance between the plates is $d$ and the area of each plate is $A$,the energy stored in the capacitor is ($\epsilon_{0} =$ permittivity of free space).

The capacity of a capacitor is $4 \times 10^{-6} \, F$ and its potential is $100 \, V$. The energy released on discharging it fully will be ....... $J$.

$A$ capacitor of capacitance $5 \mu F$ is charged by a battery of emf $10 \text{ V}$. At an instant of time,the potential difference across the capacitor is $4 \text{ V}$ and the time rate of change of potential difference across the capacitor is $0.6 \text{ Vs}^{-1}$. Then,the time rate at which energy is stored in the capacitor at that instant is:
