Question
In a parallel plate capacitor, the capacity increases if:
✓
Answer
Area of the plate is increased.
Explanation: Hint:- Check the dependence of capacitance on certain quantities.
In a parallel plate capacitor, the capacitance is $\text{C}=\frac{\text{k}\epsilon_0\text{A}}{\text{d}};$
Where, k is the dielectric constant, $\epsilon_0$ is the permittivity constant, A is the area of the conduction and d is the distance between plates.
From here we can see C is directly proportional to k, $\epsilon_0$,A and inversely proportional to d.
