Answer:

The correct answer is option'B': Change in entropy

Explanation:

We know from the second law of thermodynamics for any spontaneous process the total entropy of the system and it's surroundings will increase.

Meaning that any unaided process will  move in a direction in which the entropy of the system will increase.It is because the system will always want to increase it's randomness

A charge Q is uniformly spread over one surface of a very large nonconducting square elastic sheet having sides of length d. At
yaroslaw [1]

The electric field of a very large (essentially infinitely large) plane of charge is given by:

E = σ/(2ε₀)

E is the electric field, σ is the surface charge density, and ε₀ is the electric constant.

To determine σ:

σ = Q/A

Where Q is the total charge of the sheet and A is the sheet's area. The sheet is a square with a side length d, so A = d²:

σ = Q/d²

Make this substitution in the equation for E:

E = Q/(2ε₀d²)

We see that E is inversely proportional to the square of d:

E ∝ 1/d²

The electric field at P has some magnitude E. Now we double the side length of the sheet while keeping the same amount of charge Q distributed over the sheet. By the relationship of E with d, the electric field at P must now have a quarter of its original magnitude:

E_{new} = E/4
