Energy Stored & Force between Plates

The force between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor of capacitance ' $C$ ' and distance of separation of the plates ' $d$ ' with a potential difference ' $V$ ' between the plates is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

$F = \frac{Q^2}{2\varepsilon_0 A}$ and $Q = CV$ .
Using $\varepsilon_0 A = Cd$ : $F = \frac{C^2V^2}{2Cd}$
$F = \frac{CV^2}{2d}$
So the answer is (c) $\frac{CV^2}{2d}$ .
