$A$ parallel plate air capacitor is charged to a potential difference of $V$ volts. After disconnecting the charging battery,the distance between the plates of the capacitor is increased using an insulating handle. As a result,the potential difference between the plates:

  • A
    decreases
  • B
    increases
  • C
    does not change
  • D
    becomes zero
