Question
A parallel plate capacitor has its length, width and separation doubled. It fringing effects are neglected, to keep the capacitance same, the dielectric constant must be
Options
A. halved
B. kept the same
C. doubled
D. made 4 times

Correct Answer

halved

Explanation

A parallel plate capacitor has its length, width and separation doubled. It fringing effects are neg

. When dimensions are changed, A become four times and d becomes twice.

Since ?₀ is constant, ?_r must be halved to keep C constant.
