A parallel plate capacitor has a charge Q, plates of area A and separation d, where , so that we can disregard the fringe field. Show that the magnitude of the force exerted on each plate by the other is F = Q2/(2e0A).You may use (with care!) the expression F = QE, or consider the change in potential energy of the capacitor as you change the separation of the plates. Or you may do both.

A parallel plate capacitor of capacitance Co has plates of area A with separation d between them. When it is connected to a battery of voltage Vo, it has charge of magnitude Qo on its plates. It is then disconnected from the battery and the plates are pulled apart to a separation 2d without discharging them. After the plates are 2d apart, by what factor does the capacitance change? By what factor does the potential difference between the plates change?
