प्रश्न

The capacitance of a capacitor does not depend on

विकल्प

  • the shape of the plates

  • the size of the plates

  • the charges on the plates

  • the separation between the plates

MCQ

उत्तर

the charges on the plates

The capacitance of a capacitor is given by `C = (∈_0A)/d`

Here, A is the area of the plates of the capacitor and d is the distance between the plates.
So, we can clearly see that the capacitance of a capacitor does depend on the size and shape of the plates and the separation between the plates; it does not depend on the charges on the plates.
