    Figure below shows four plates each of area A and separated from one another by a distance d. What is the capacitance between P and Q?

    A)  \[\frac{{{\varepsilon }_{0}}A}{d}\]          

    B)         \[\frac{2{{\varepsilon }_{0}}A}{d}\]

    C)  \[\frac{3{{\varepsilon }_{0}}A}{d}\]       

    D)         \[\frac{4{{\varepsilon }_{0}}A}{d}\]

    E)  Zero

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Two capacitors (in parallel order) are formed between the plates. So,          \[{{C}_{PQ}}={{C}_{1}}+{{C}_{2}}\]                 \[=\frac{A{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}{d}+\frac{A{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}{d}=\frac{2A{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}{d}\]
