Parallel Plate – BasicEasyQuestion 31504

Question

Capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor with plate area A, separation d in vacuum is:
  1. A
    ε₀d/A
  2. B
    ε₀A/d
    Correct
  3. C
    A/(ε₀d)
  4. D
    d/(ε₀A)

Correct answer

ε₀A/d

Explanation

C = ε₀A/d. Increasing area or decreasing separation increases capacitance.
