JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 2. Electric potential and capacitance

As shown in the figure, two parallel plate capacitors having equal plate area of \(200\,cm ^2\) are joined in such a way that \(a \neq b\). The equivalent capacitance of the combination is \(x \varepsilon_0 F\). The value of \(x\) is \(..........\).

  1. A \(4\)
  2. B \(3\)
  3. C \(5\)
  4. D \(2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(5\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(c=\frac{\varepsilon_0 A}{(d-c)}\) \(=\frac{\varepsilon_0 \times 200 \times 10^{-4}}{4 \times 10^{-3}}\) \(\therefore x=5\) The situation is equivalent to a conducting slab placed between the plates
