change in the energy stored in a parallel plate capacitor if the separation between its
plates were to be decreased by 10%?[3]
14. Two identical plane metallic surfaces A and B are kept parallel to each other in air
separated by a distance of 1.0 cm as shown in the figure. Surface A is given a positive
potential of 10V and the outer surface of B is earthed.
