MCQ
Which material sheet should be placed between the plates of a parallel plate condenser in order to increase its capacitance ?
- AMica
- BCopper
- CTin
- DIron
✓
Answer
- Mica
Explanation:
Here copper, tin, iron all are conductor so they will decrease the capacitance. The mica sheet is a dielectric or insulator so it will increase the capacitance k times. Where k is the dielectric constant.
