A capacitor consists of a set of two parallel plates of area A separated by a distance d. This capacitor is connected to a battery that maintains a constant potential difference V across the plates. If the separation between the plates is doubled, the electrical energy stored in the capacitor will be -doubled -unchanged -quadrupled -quartered -halved
