The distance between the plates fo a parallel plate capacitor is d. A metal plate of thickness `d//2` is placed between the plates, what will be the new capacity ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

As electrons field inside the metal plate is zero, d becomes `d//2`. Hencr C becomes twice (from `C = in_(0) A//d`).
