A parallel plate capacitor is formed by placing n plates in alternate series one over another. If the capacity between any two consecutive plates is C, then total capacity of the capacitor i
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Each plate is taking part in the formation of two capacitors except the plates at the ends.
These capacitors are in parallel and n plates form ( 
) capacitors.
Thus, equivalent capacitance between A and
