MCQ
Identify the factor on which the capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor does not depend.
  • ✓
    Permeability of the medium between the plates.
  • B
    Area of the plates.
  • C
    Distance between the plates.
  • D
    The permittivity of the medium between the plates.
✓

Answer

Correct option: A.
Permeability of the medium between the plates.
The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is directly proportional to the area of the plates and permittivity of the medium between the plates. It is indirectly proportional to the distance between the plates.
