Identify the factor on which the capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor does not depend.(a) Permeability of the medium between the plates(b) Area of the plates(c) Distance between the plates(d) The permittivity of the medium between the platesThis question was addressed to me by my school principal while I was bunking the class.Origin of the question is Parallel Plate Capacitor in chapter Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance of Physics – Class 12

Answer»

Correct ANSWER is (a) Permeability of the medium between the plates

The best explanation: The capacitance of a parallel PLATE CAPACITOR is directly proportional to the area of the plates and permittivity of the medium between the plates. It is INDIRECTLY proportional to the DISTANCE between the plates.
