MCQ
The capacitance of a parallel plate condenser does not depend on
  • A
    Area of the plates
  • B
    Medium between the plates
  • C
    Distance between the plates
  • Metal of the plates

Answer

Correct option: D.
Metal of the plates
d
Formula used

capacitance $c=\frac{q}{v}$

capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is given as

$c=\frac{k \varepsilon_0 A}{d}$

The capacitance of the condensor does not depend upon metal of the plates
