An ideal parallel-plate capacitor consists of two parallel plates of area A separated by a distance d. This capacitor is connected across a battery that maintains a constant potential difference between the plates. If the separation between the plates is now doubled, the magnitude of the charge on the plates will

One point charge +Q is placed at the center of a square, and a second point charge -Q is placed at the upper-left corner of the square. It is observed that an electrostatic force of magnitude 2.0 N acts on the positive charge at the center. Now a third charge -Q is placed at the lower-left corner of the square, as shown in the figure. What is the magnitude of the net force that acts on the center charge now?
