As the distance between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor decreased

A

If both assertion and reason are ture and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertin and reason are ture but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion .

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Capacitance of parallel plate capacitor is `C = (epsi_(0)A)/(d)` where A is the area of each plante and d is sepration between them . Thus if distance decreases, capacitance of capacitor increases.
