$A$ capacitor of capacitance $C$ is connected to a battery of $V$ volts. Now,the distance between the plates of the capacitor is halved while keeping the charge constant,and it is again charged to $V$ volts. What is the energy supplied by the battery?

  • A
    $CV^2/4$
  • B
    $CV^2/2$
  • C
    $3CV^2/4$
  • D
