| Directions: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as: |
| Assertion (A): Capacity of a parallel plate capacitor increases when distance between the plates is decreased. |
| Reason (R): Capacitance of capacitor is inversely proportional to distance between them. |
A) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A)
B) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A)
C) Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false
D) Assertion (A) is false and Reason (R) is also false
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
(a) Capacitance of parallel plate capacitor is \[C=\frac{{{\varepsilon }_{0}}A}{d}\]. Thus distance decreases and capacitance of capacitor increases.
