A capacitor of capacity $C$ is connected with a battery of potential $V$ in parallel. The distance between its plates is reduced to half at once, assuming that the charge remains the same. Then to charge the capacitance upto the potential $V$ again, the energy given by the battery will be

  • A

    $C{V^2}/4$

  • B

    $C{V^2}/2$

  • C

    $3C{V^2}/4$

  • D

    $C{V^2}$
