A gang capacitor is formed by interlocking a number of plates as shown in figure. The distance between the consecutive places is 0.885 cm and the overlapping area of the plates is `5cm^(2).` The capacity of the unit is A. 1.06 pFB. 4 pFC. 6.36 pFD. 12.72 pF |

Answer» Correct Answer - B The given arrangement of nine plates is equivalent to the paralllel combination of 8 capacitors. The capacity of each capacitor, `C=(epsilon_(0)A)/(d)` `=(8.854xx10^(-12)xx5xx10^(-4))/(0.885xx10^(-2))` `=0.5pF` Hence, the capacity of 8 capacitors `=8C=8xx0.5=4pF` |
