The capacity of a parallel plate condenser can be increased by

Options

A. decreasing the area of the plates
B. increasing the area of the plates
C. increasing the distance between plates
D. decreasing dielectric constant of the medium

for a parallel plate capacitor,
`C=(KA epsi_(0))/(d)` i.e., `CpropA`
thus C can be increased by increasing the area of the plates.
