Out of the following capacitors of identical rating which one will have the smallest dimensions ___________ ?
Correct answer: C. Ceramic capacitor
- A. Aluminium foil capacitor
- B. Mica capacitor
- C. Ceramic capacitor
- D. Paper capacitorGet Study Guides
Explanation
For the same capacitance and voltage rating, a ceramic dielectric generally provides a higher dielectric constant and dielectric strength than mica, paper, or aluminium foil arrangements. Therefore, less physical material is needed and the ceramic capacitor is smallest.
