Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) : Capacitors - Quiz(MCQ)

Decrease in plate area

Increase in plate area

Increase in density of the material

Increase in distance between the plates

Correct Answer : Option (B) : Increase in plate area

Explanation : Capacitance is directly proportional to the plate area. Hence as the plate area increases, the capacitance also increases.
