Four metal plates,each with surface area $A$ on one side,are placed with separation '$d$' as shown in the figure. The capacitance between $a$ and $b$ is ($\varepsilon_0$ = permittivity of free space).

  • A
    $\frac{3 \varepsilon_0 A}{d}$
  • B
    $\frac{2 \varepsilon_0 A}{d}$
  • C
    $\frac{2 \varepsilon_0 A}{3 d}$
  • D
    $\frac{3 \varepsilon_0 A}{2 d}$

In an isolated parallel plate capacitor of capacitance $C$,the four surfaces have charges $Q_1$,$Q_2$,$Q_3$,and $Q_4$ as shown. The potential difference between the plates is

If the charge on parallel plates is $\pm Q$ and the area is $A$,write the formula for the electric field between the two plates.

$A$ parallel plate capacitor is to be designed with a voltage rating $1\; kV$,using a material of dielectric constant $3$ and dielectric strength about $10^{7}\; V\,m^{-1}$. (Dielectric strength is the maximum electric field a material can tolerate without breakdown,i.e.,without starting to conduct electricity through partial ionisation.) For safety,we should like the field never to exceed,say $10\%$ of the dielectric strength. What minimum area (in $cm^2$) of the plates is required to have a capacitance of $50\; pF$?
