MHT CET · Physics · Capacitance
In a parallel plate capacitor, the capacity can be increased by decreasing
- A permeability of the medium.
- B value of dielectric constant.
- C area of the plates.
- D the distance between plates.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) the distance between plates.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Separation. Decreasing the separation of the plates, decreases the voltage of the capacitor since the electric-field is not affected by the distance between the plates. The voltage on the capacitor is \(V=E d\). Therefore the voltage increases
