The capacitance of a capacitor is not affected by____________?
Correct answer: C. thickness of plates
- A. distance between plates
- B. area of plates
- C. thickness of plates
- D. all of the above
Explanation
The ideal relation C = εA/d includes plate area, separation, and dielectric permittivity, but not the physical thickness of the plates. Therefore changing plate thickness does not affect the capacitance appreciably.
