A capacitor consists of a set of two parallel plates of area A separated by a distance d. This capacitor is connected to a battery and charged until its plates carry charges If the separation between the plates is doubled, the electrical energy stored in the capacitor will

Answer:

The electrical energy stored in the capacitor will be cut in half.

Explanation:

The energy in a capacitator is given by E=C[tex]V^{2}[/tex]/2 and the formula for the Capacitance in a capacitator is C= [tex]\frac{Q}{V}[/tex] = ε[tex]\frac{A}{d}[/tex] .

So if we replace C = ε[tex]\frac{A}{d}[/tex]  in the first equation we have:

E = ε[tex]\frac{AV^{2} }{2d}[/tex]
