(2) (4.5 points) A parallel-plate capacitor with plate separation d is connected to a battery that has potential difference AVbar. Without breaking any of the connections, insulating handles are used to increase the plate separation to 2d. (a) Does the potential difference AVcchange as the separation increases? If so, by what factor? If not, why not? AV bat Page 1 of 2 (b) Does the capacitance change? If so, by what factor? If not, why not? (c) Does the capacitor charge O change? If so, by what factor? If not, why not
