Question:

A parallel-plate capacitor filled with air has plates of area 0.0066 m2 and a separation of 0.45 mm.

(a) Find the magnitude of the charge on each plate when the capacitor is connected to a 12-V battery.

(b) Will your answer to part (a) increase, decrease, or stay the same if the separation between the plates is increased? Explain.

(c) Calculate the magnitude of the charge on the plates if the separation is 0.90 mm.
