Consider an isolated capacitor with a dielectric slab between its plates. The two plates have charge Q and -Q. Because the capacitor is not hooked to anything, the charge on the plates cannot change. What happens to the energy of the capacitor if you pull out the dielectric slab? A. It decreases. B. It does not change. C. It increases.
