Find the voltage, charge and energy stored by each capacitor. The knowns are C and V. l. The capacitor from the example problem is detached from the battery. You then pull the plates further apart, so their separation distance is now 8.00 mm. Find the new capacitance, the capacitor voltage, the energy stored by the capacitor and the energy density between the plates. For each answer, indicate if it increased, decreased, or stayed the same as a result of you moving the plates further apart. Hint: Since the capacitor is disconnected from the battery, it cannot gain or lose charge, so the amount of charge on the plates does not change. ...but C and Vdo
