Q. The capacitance of a capacitor is

1738 222 Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance Report Error

A

Directly proportional to the dielectric constant of the medium between the plates

74%

B

Inversely proportional to the dielectric constant of the medium between the plates

15%

C

Proportional to the square of the dielectric constant of the medium between the plates

7%

D

Independent of the dielectric constant of the medium between the plates

4%

Solution:

$C = K \in_{0} \frac{A}{d}$
$C \propto Q$
