- CCapacitance decreases as the spacing between plates increases
- DThere is not a predictable relationship between capacitance and spacing between plates
3A parallel plate capacitor has plates with area A, separation distance, d, and dielectric filling the space between the plates, resulting in capacitance C.

- BX > Z = W > Y
- CY > W = Z > X
- DX > W > Z > Y
5Which of the following would definitely increase the capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor? Select TWO.
- AIncrease plate area and decrease the distance between the plates.
- BIncrease plate area and increase the distance between the plates.
- CInsert material with a greater dielectric constant between the plates and increase the distance between the plates.
- DInsert material with a greater dielectric constant between the plates and increase the plate area.

The potential difference across each capacitor satisfies which of the following relationships?
(There are TWO correct answers.)- AThe sum of the magnitudes of the potential differences across the two capacitors is equal to the magnitude of the potential difference across the battery when the switch is closed.
- BThe potential differences across the two capacitors are equal regardless of their capacitances since they are in series with each other.
- CThe potential difference will be smallest across the capacitor with the largest capacitance.
- DThe potential difference across each capacitor will be inversely proportional to the charge stored on each capacitor.
