Question

6.

A dielectric slab is slowly inserted between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor while the capacitor is
connected to a battery. As it is being inserted:
the capacitance and the charge on the plate increase but the potential difference between
the plates remains the same
the capacitance and the charge on the positive plate decrease but the potential difference
between the plates remains the same
the potential difference between the plates increases, the charge on the positive plate
decreases, and the capacitance remains the same
the capacitance, the potential difference between the plates, the charge on the positive plate
D
all decrease
