Two 2.0 cm × 2.0 cm metal electrodes are spaced 1.0 mm apart and connected by wires to the terminals of a 9.0 V battery.
a. What are the charge on each electrode and the potential difference between them?
While the plates are still connected to the battery, insulated handles are used to pull them apart to a new spacing of 2.0 mm.
