Now, the two metal plates are discharged and then connected to a battery as shown. For each of the following questions, state how each quantity changes, if at all, when the two plates are moved closer together. Does the potential difference between the plates increase, decrease, or remain the same as the plates are moved closer together? MM Battery The potential difference increases. The potential difference decreases. O The potential difference remains the same. Metal plates attached to battery Does the electric field between the plates increase, decrease, or remain the same as the plates are moved closer together? O The electric field increases. The electric field decreases. O The electric field remains the same. Explain your reasoning to the question above. Does the capacitance of the pair of plates increase, decrease, or remain the same as the plates are moved closer together? The capacitance of the pair of plates increases. The capacitance of the pair of plates decreases. O The capacitance of the pair of plates remains the same. The diagram and description are repeated below for your convenience. Now, the two metal plates are discharged and then connected to a battery as shown. For each of the following questions, state how each quantity changes, if at all, when the two plates are moved closer together. Does the charge density on each plate increase, decrease, or remain the same as the plates are moved closer together? Battery n The charge density increases. The charge density decreases. The charge density remains the same. Metal plates attached to battery Explain your reasoning to the question above. Explain your reasoning to the question above.
