Question 26 POST_UTME_AL-HIKMAH_UNIVERSITY • 2018 • PHYSICS • objective

A parallel plate capacitor consists of two plates, each of area $A$, separated by a dis\tance $d$. The capaci\tance of the capacitor is given by $C = \frac{epsilon_0 A}{d}$. If the area of each plate is increased by a factor of 4, and the dis\tance between the plates is decreased by a factor of 2, what is the new capaci\tance?

Answer Options

A. \frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}
B. \frac{2\epsilon_0 A}{d}
C. \frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d/2}
Correct Answer D. \frac{8\epsilon_0 A}{d/2}
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
\frac{8\epsilon_0 A}{d/2}
