Capacitor in Space (No Gravity)HardQuestion 31599

Question

The concept of capacitance applies equally in space far from any gravitational field because capacitance depends on:
  1. A
    Gravity
  2. B
    Temperature
  3. C
    Geometry and permittivity only
    Correct
  4. D
    Pressure

Correct answer

Geometry and permittivity only

Explanation

C = ε₀A/d (or 4πε₀R, etc.) — purely geometric and material-dependent. Gravitational field has no effect on electrostatic capacitance.
