if we introduce a conductor b/w the plates of a capacitor then what will happen? will the capcitance increase or decrease?
The capacitance will decrease as the distance between the plates increases. This is because the electric field between the plates weakens with increasing distance, resulting in a decrease in the ability of the capacitor to store charge.
The capacitance is directly proportional to the size of the plates. This means that as the surface area of the plates increases, the capacitance also increases. This is because a larger surface area allows for more charge to be stored on the plates.
The capacitance will increase when a dielectric material is inserted between the plates. This is because a dielectric material reduces the electric field between the plates, allowing for more charge to be stored on the plates.
Yes, the capacitance will change if the dielectric constant is varied. The capacitance is directly proportional to the dielectric constant, so as the dielectric constant increases, the capacitance also increases.
The type of dielectric material can affect the capacitance because different materials have different dielectric constants. Materials with higher dielectric constants will result in a higher capacitance, while materials with lower dielectric constants will result in a lower capacitance.
