JEE Main & Advanced Physics Electrostatics & Capacitance Question Bank Grouping of Capacitors

  • question_answer
    A parallel plate capacitor is made by stacking \[n\] equally spaced plates connected alternately. If the capacitance between any two plates is \[C\] then the resultant capacitance is [NCERT 1971; DPMT 2001; MP PMT 2003; AIEEE 2005]

    A)                    \[C\]

    B)                                      \[nC\]

    C)                    \[(n-1)C\]                      

    D)            \[(n+1)C\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

               The given arrangement becomes an arrangement of \[(n-1)\] capacitors connected in parallel. So  \[{{C}_{R}}=(n-1)C\]
