Two identical parallel-plate capacitors, each with capacitance
13.0 μF, are charged to potential difference 47.5 V and then
disconnected from the battery. They are then connected to each
other in parallel with plates of like sign connected. Finally, the
plate separation in one of the capacitors is doubled.
(a) Find the total energy of the system of two capacitors before
the plate separation is doubled.
J
(b) Find the potential difference across each capacitor after the
plate separation is doubled.
V
(c) Find the total energy of the system after the plate separation
is doubled.
J
(d) Reconcile the difference in the answers to parts (a) and (c)
with the law of conservation of energy.
-Positive work is done by the agent pulling the plates apart.
-Negative work is done by the agent pulling the plates apart.
-No work is done by pulling the agent pulling the plates apart.
