A researcher builds a parallel plate capacitor with

A researcher builds a parallel plate capacitor with adjustable spacing between the plates When the plates are at their initial separation the capacitance is 6 50 F a At this capacitance the capacitor is connected to a 18 00 V battery After fully charging how much energy in J is stored in the capacitor b The battery is then disconnected Without discharging the capacitor the researcher then doubles the separation between the plates At this point how much energy in J is stored in the capacitor J c Without changing this new separation between the plates the capacitor is discharged and then reconnected to the 18 00 V battery Now after fully charging how much energy in J is stored in the capacitor J
