MHT CET · Physics · Capacitance
In a parallel plate capacitor, the capacity increases if
- A area of the plate is decreased
- B distance between the plates increases
- C area of the plate is increased
- D dielectric constant decrease
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) area of the plate is increased
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In a parallel plate capacitor, the capacity of capacitor,
\(
C=\frac{k \varepsilon_{0} A}{d}
\)
\(\therefore\) \(C \propto A\)
So, the capacity of capacitor increase if area of the plate is increased.
\(
C=\frac{k \varepsilon_{0} A}{d}
\)
\(\therefore\) \(C \propto A\)
So, the capacity of capacitor increase if area of the plate is increased.
