Physics · Capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor with and without dielectric medium between the plates, energy stored in a capacitor
The capacity of a parallel plate condenser is inversely proportional to
The capacity of a parallel plate condenser is inversely proportional to
- A. Area of each plate
- B. Dielectric constant
- C. Permittivity of medium
- D. Distance between two plates
Step-by-step solution
The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is given by C = εA/d, where ε is permittivity, A is plate area, and d is separation. So C is inversely proportional to d.
