A parallel plate air capacitor is charged to a potential difference of V. After disconnecting the battery, distance between the plates of the capacitor is increased using an insulating handle. As a result, the potential difference between the plates
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Potential on parallel plate capacitor, 
.
Also, capacity of parallel plate capacitor is given by
So, on increasing the distance between plates of capacitor, the potential difference between plates also increases.
