  1. A Independent of the distance between the plates
  2. B Linearly proportional to the distance between the plates
  3. C Inversely proportional to the distance between the plates
  4. D Proportional to the square root of the distance between the plates
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) Independent of the distance between the plates

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For isolated capacitor \(Q =\) Constant \(F_{plate}=\frac{Q^2}{2A\varepsilon_0}\)
