Four metallic plates each of area A and ...

Four metallic plates each of area A and separted from one another by a distance d are arranged as shown in the figure. What is the capacitance between X and Y?

A

`C=(epsi_(0)A)/(d)`

B

`C=(4epsi_(0)A)/(d)`

C

`C=(2epsi_(0)A)/(d)`

D

`C=(3epsi_(0)A)/(d)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
There are two capacitors in parallel.
`therefore`The resultant capacity is `(2epsi_(0)A)/(d)`.
