For which of the following parameter variation, the capacitance of the capacitor remains unaffected ____________?

Correct answer: D. Thickness of the plates

  • A. Distance between plates
  • B. Area of the plates
  • C. Nature of dielectric
  • D. Thickness of the plates

Explanation

For a parallel-plate capacitor, C = εA/d, so capacitance depends on plate area, separation, and dielectric permittivity. Plate thickness is not included in this relation, so changing it leaves capacitance essentially unchanged.
