The plates of a parallel plate capacitor of capacity $50\,\mu C$ are charged to a potential of $100\;volts$ and then separated from each other so that the distance between them is doubled. How much is the energy spent in doing so

  • A

    $25 \times {10^{ - 2}}\,J$

  • B

    $ - 12.5 \times {10^{ - 2}}\,J$

  • C

    $ - 25 \times {10^{ - 2}}\,J$

  • D

    $12.5 \times {10^{ - 2}}\,J$

A series combination of $n_1$ capacitors, each of value $C_1$ is charged by a source of potential difference $4\, V.$ When another parallel combination of $n_2$ capacitors, each of value $C_2,$ is charged by a source of potential difference $V$, it has the same (total) energy stored in it, as the first combination has. The value of $C_2,$ in terms of $C_1$ is then
