Assertion: If the distance between paral...

Assertion: If the distance between parallel plates of a capacitor is halved and dielectric constant is made three times, then the capacitor becomes `6` times.
Reason: Capacity of the capacitor does not depend upon the nature of the meterial.

A

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

B

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

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If the assertion and reason both are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`C=(Aepsilon_0k)/dimpliesC.=(Aepsilon_0k)/(d//2)=(6Aepsilon_0k)/d=6((Aepsilon_0k)/d)`
`:. C. =6C`
