Question

In a parallel plate capacitor , the capacity increases if
A. area of the plate is decreased
B. distance between the plates increases
C. area of the plate is increased
D. dielectric constant decreases.

Answer 1

Correct Answer - C
In a parallel plate capacitor the capacity of capacitor .
`C = (K epsi_(0)A)/(d) i.e., C propA`
The capacity of capacitor increases if area of the plate is increased.
