For a parallel plate capacitor having plate area $1.13 × 10^3\, m^2$ and separation between plates 0.5 cm, the capacitance is |
2.8 μF 2.0 μF 2.0 nF 4.0 μF |
2.0 μF |
The correct answer is Option (2) → 2.0 μF Given: Plate area, $A = 1.13 \times 10^3 \, \text{m}^2$ Separation between plates, $d = 0.5 \, \text{cm} = 0.005 \, \text{m}$ Permittivity of free space, $\varepsilon_0 = 8.854 \times 10^{-12} \, \text{F/m}$ Formula for capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor: $C = \frac{\varepsilon_0 A}{d}$ Substituting the values: $C = \frac{8.854 \times 10^{-12} \times 1.13 \times 10^3}{0.005}$ $C = \frac{1.000502 \times 10^{-8}}{0.005}$ $C = 2.001 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{F}$ $C = 2.001 \, \mu\text{F}$ |
