If the radius of the outer sphere is increased by a factor of 2.50 while keeping the charge on the plates constant, by what factor does the stored energy change?
2.50
Calculate the capacitance of a sphere in terms of R1 before and after R2 was increased. By considering the ratio of the two stored energies, the unknown radius, R1, drops out. Use the energy formula containing charge.
