A schematic diagram showing a parallel-plate capacitor connected to a battery supplying potential difference V_0. The two flat parallel conductive plates have surface area A and are separated by vertical distance d. The upper plate connects to the positive battery terminal and the lower plate connects to the negative terminal. No other elements appear.
Parallel-plate capacitor connected to a battery.
An air-filled parallel-plate capacitor with plate separation distance \(d\) is connected to a battery supplying potential difference \(V_0\), storing total charge \(Q_0\). While remaining connected to the battery, the separation distance between the plates is increased to \(2d\). What is the new charge stored on the capacitor?
