A parallel plate capacitor was made with two rectangular plates, each with a length of 
and breath of 
. The distance between the plates is 
. Out of the following, which are the ways to increase the capacitance by a factor of 10?
A
A only
B
C only C
B and D only
D
(E) 
Choose the correct answer from the options given below: C and E only
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
We know 
So to increase the capacitance by 10 factor 
has to increase by 10 fator.
For option 
For option 
For option 
For option 
For option (E) 
Clearly and (E) are the situation for 10 C
