1. Two 2.0 cm by 2.0 cm metal electrodes are spaced 1.0 mm apart
and connected by wires of the terminals of a 9.0 V battery.
a. What are the charge on each electrode and the potential
difference between them?
b. If the wires are disconnected, and insulating handles are used
to pull the plates apart to a new spacing of 2.0 mm, what are the
charge on each electrode and the potential difference between
them?
c. If instead, the plates from part a. remained connected to the battery while the insulating handles pull them apart to their new spacing of 2.0 mm, what are the charge on each electrode and the potential difference between them?
