Question
What effect does the dielectric medium have on the capacitance of a capacitor?
✓
Answer
In the presence of dielectric medium, the value of capacitance increases but this increase depends on how the middle part of the plates is filled with dielectric material whether it is filled completely, partially or in the form of different lavers.
