Q1medium

A parallel plate capacitor has capacitance CC. It is charged to a potential VV by a battery. The battery is then disconnected, and a dielectric slab of dielectric constant KK is inserted between the plates. What is the new energy stored in the capacitor?

Q2medium

Two capacitors of capacitances C1=2,muFC_1 = 2,mu F and C2=3,muFC_2 = 3,mu F are charged to potentials V1=100,VV_1 = 100,\text{V} and V2=50,VV_2 = 50,\text{V} respectively. They are then connected in parallel with plates of like polarity joined together. Calculate the energy lost during the connection.

Q3easy

A parallel plate capacitor has an area AA and plate separation dd. It is charged by a battery to a potential VV. The energy stored in the capacitor is U0U_0. If the plate separation is doubled to 2d2d while the battery remains connected, what is the new energy stored?

Q4easy

A capacitor of 10,muF10,mu F is charged to 200,V200,\text{V}. How much energy is stored in it?

Q5easy
