Question

The following arrangements consists of five identical metal plates parallel to each other. Area of each plate is A and separation between the successive plates is d. The equivalent capacitance between P and Q is –

• A. $\frac{5\varepsilon_{0}A}{d}$
• B. $\frac{7}{3}\frac{\varepsilon_{0}A}{d}$
• C. $\frac{4}{3}\frac{\varepsilon_{0}A}{d}$
• D. $\frac{5}{3}\frac{\varepsilon_{0}A}{d}$

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

$\frac{5}{3}\frac{\varepsilon_{0}A}{d}$

Answer 2

C_eq = + C = = $\frac { 5 } { 3 }$ $\frac { \varepsilon _ { 0 } \mathrm {~A} } { \mathrm {~d} }$
