In summary, when the capacitor plates are pulled farther apart, the charge remains constant while the potential difference increases. This results in an increase in potential energy. The use of the term "potential difference" can refer to both the voltage supplied by a battery and the voltage within a capacitor, depending on the context.

If you''re able to pull the plates apart without upsetting the charge stored then yes, the voltage will increase. Q = CV where Q is charge, C is capacitance and V is voltage. If
Yes, the voltage increases. It seems most of us learned of this in school. My Physics professor had a setup with movable plates, and a very sensitive (actually, very high impedance) voltmeter. As the plates were pulled apart, the voltage went up. This comes from the elemental formula Q=CV. Pulling the plates apart lowers the capacitance.

Remember, that on a regular capacitor, there is an attractive force between the two oppositely charged plates and it is this force that is trying to stop the plates from being pulled-apart. If the capacitor plates remain connected to the supply, as the distance increases the voltage must stay the same so therefore charge is reduced (because C reduces) and this

What are the energies stored in the capacitor before and after the plates are pulled farther apart? Why does the energy decrease even though work is done in separating the plates?
When the plates of a parallel plate capacitor are pulled apart while battery remains connected, the potential difference between the plates remains equal to that of the EMF of the battery as the plates are connected to
The battery is then disconnected from the capacitor. The plates are then pulled apart so the spacing between the plates is increased. The electric field (E2) between the plates after pulling them apart could be larger, smaller, or equal to the initial electric field (E1) depending on the ratio between the final potential difference (V2) and

I understand that when the separation between the plates of a charged capacitor is increased, the voltage increases. But I'd really like to know what happens to the plates if the capacitor is fully charged , disconnected from the charging circuit and then the plates are moved apart from each other by an infinite distance.
What happens to capacitor’s charge when the plates are moved further apart? In my physics textbook there is an example of using capacitor switches in computer keyboard: Pressing the key pushes two capacitor plates closer together, increasing their capacitance.
If you discharge the capacitor completely, then both plates have no charge and are neutral. The charge will remain however the energy will not be the same. There is energy stored in the electric field itself. If move the plates you will be doing work on the system. When you move the plates apart the voltage will increase.
A capacitor has an even electric field between the plates of strength E E (units: force per coulomb). So the voltage is going to be E × distance between the plates E × distance between the plates. Therefore increasing the distance increases the voltage. I see it from a vector addition perspective.
What happens when plates of a fully charged capacitor are isolated from each other? I'm a mechanical engineering student and I'm working on a project that involves a high voltage capacitor. I understand that when the separation between the plates of a charged capacitor is increased, the voltage increases.
So, doubling the distance will double the voltage. The electric field approximation will degrade significantly as x x gets larger than some fraction of some characteristic dimension of the plates. As we know, a capacitor consists of two parallel metallic plates.
