The plates $S$ and $T$ of an uncharged parallel plate capacitor are connected across a battery. The battery is then disconnected and the charged plates are now connected in a system as shown in the figure. The system shown is in equilibrium. All the strings are insulating and massless. The magnitude of charge on one of the capacitor plates is: [Area of plates = $A$]

115-788

  • A

    $\sqrt {2mgA{ \in _0}} $

  • B

    $\sqrt {\frac{{4mgA{ \in _0}}}{k}} $

  • C

    $\sqrt {mgA{ \in _0}} $

  • D

    $\sqrt {\frac{{2mgA{ \in _0}}}{k}} $
