If instead the capacitor stays connected to its source while the same dielectric is inserted, the charge on it becomes

  • A.three times its former value
  • B.one third of its former value
  • C.unchanged
  • D.zero

Answer: A

With the voltage fixed and the capacitance trebled, the charge must treble too and the source supplies the extra. The stored energy also trebles, and the source in fact delivers twice that increase, half of it being dissipated or done as work.
