please make sure you do all questions and you have the right answers.
1- A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery. The
space between the two plates is empty. If the separation between
the capacitor plates is tripled while the capacitor remains
connected to the battery, what is the ratio of the final stored
energy to the initial stored energy?

2- Design a 0.4 µF parallel-plate capacitor with air between the plates that can be charged to a maximum potential difference of 1160 V.
(a) What is the minimum possible separation between the
plates?
..... mm
(b) What minimum area must the plates of the capacitor have?
...... m2
