at A and C is zero and resultant charge due to B and D is towards D along [22] A parallel plate capacitor is charged fully by using a battery. Then, without dis-
the diagonal BD. connecting the battery, the plates are moved further apart. Then,

[17] When a conducting soap bubble is negatively charged then (A) the charge on the capacitor increases
(B) the voltage difference between the plates decreases
(A) Its size starts varying arbitrarily
(C) the capacitance increases
(B) It expands
(D) the electrostatic energy stored in the capacitor decreases
(C) It contracts
Solution:[ Correct Answer : D ]
(D) No change in its size takes place
(d) ( )
Solution:[ Correct Answer : B ]
As plates are moved far away further, capacity of capacitor C = ε0dA
(b) decreases.
Due to repulsion force between diametrically opposite wall, it expands. As battery remains connected during this activity, potential difference between
plates remains same.
[18] If a solid and a hollow conducting sphere have same radius then So, the charge on plates (Q( = CV ) decreases.
)
Also, energy of capacitor U = 12 CV 2 decreases as capacitance decreases.
So, correct option is (d).
