MCQ
The capacitance of a capacitor does not depend on:
- AThe shape of the plates.
- BThe size of the plates.
- CThe charges on the plates.
- DThe separation between the plates.

Answer
- The charges on the plates.
Explanation:
The capacitance of a capacitor is given by:
$\text{C}=\frac{\in_0\text{A}}{\text{d}}$
Here, A is the area of the plates of the capacitor and d is the distance between the plates.
So, we can clearly see that the capacitance of a capacitor does depend on the size and shape of the plates and the separation between the plates; it does not depend on the charges on the plates.
