A parallel plate capacitor has circular plates of $10\, cm$ radius separated by an air-gap of $1\, mm$. It is charged by connecting the plates to a $100\, volt$ battery. Then the change in energy stored in the capacitor when the plates are moved to a distance of $1\, cm$ and the plates are maintained in connection with the battery, is
  • ALoss of $12.5\, ergs$
  • BLoss of $125\, ergs$
  • CGain of $125\, ergs$
  • DGain of $12.5\, ergs$
