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

A

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

B

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

C

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

D

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

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
In this case there are three capacitor in parallel
`therefore`The resultant capacity is `(3epsi_(0)A)/d`
