Physics

Consider two oppositely charged, isolated parallel platesseparated by distance D, with capacitance C,charge Q, and stored energy U. D is smallcompared to the dimensions of the plates. For each statement below,select \"True\" or \"False\".

1. Because of energy conservation, inserting a dielectric leavesU unchanged.
2. When D is halved, Q stays the same.
3. Inserting a dielectric decreases C.
4. When D is doubled, U increases.
5. When D is doubled, C is doubled.
6. Inserting a dielectric increasesQ.
7.
Increasing D, leaves the Efield unchanged.
