Answer:
The book remained in its state of rest before the car started to move forward as no direct force acted on it.
Explanation:
According to Newton's first law of motion, a body will continue in its present state of rest, or if it is in motion, will continue to move with uniform speed in a straight line unless aced upon by an external force. This tendency of a body to remain in its state of reset or uniform motion in a straight line is known as inertia and is directly proportional to the mass of the body. The more massive a body, the more inertia it possesses. Thus Newton's first law is also known as the law of inertia.
Considering the case of the book on the dashboard of a stationary car which suddenly starts to move. While the car is stopped at the traffic light, the dashboard where the book sits and the book are both at rest. When the car begins to move forward, the dashboard moves forward with it. However as the book is not a part of the car, no force is directly acting on it, so the book so it stays at rest due to its inertia.
Therefore, as the car is moving forward, the stationary book appears to move backward from the reference point of the car, sliding off the dashboard.

Explanation:
Below is an attachment containing the solution.
Answer: C.
Explanation:
For a parallel-plate capacitor where the distance between the plates is d.
The capacitance is:
C = e*A/d
You can see that the distance is in the denominator, then if we double the distance, the capacitance halves.
Now, the stored energy can be written as:
E = (1/2)*Q^2/C
Now you can see that in this case, the capacitance is in the denominator, then we can rewrite this as:
E = (1/2)*Q^2*d/(e*A)
e is a constant, A is the area of the plates, that is also constant, and Q is the charge, that can not change because the capacitor is disconnected.
Then we can define:
K = (1/2)*Q^2/(e*A)
And now we can write the energy as:
E = K*d
Then the energy is proportional to the distance between the plates, this means that if we double the distance, we also double the energy.
