NEET2015PhysicsCapacitanceActual
A parallel plate air capacitor has capacity C , distance of separation between plates is d and potential difference V is applied between the plates. The force of attraction between the plates of the capacitor is
Options
- AC V 2 2 d .
- BC V 2 d .
- CC 2 V 2 2 d 2 .
- DC 2 V 2 2 d .
Correct answer
A. C V 2 2 d .
Step-by-step solution
Attraction force between the plates, F = q 2 2 A ε 0 where q = C V and C = ε 0 A d ⇒ F = C 2 V 2 2 C d = C V 2 2 d
