Question 1 Report

A parallel plate capacitor of area $10\text{cm}^2$ in vacuum has a capacitance of $10^{-2}\,\mu\text{F}$. What is the distance between the plates? $(e = 9 x 10^{-12}\text{fm})$

9 x 10-13m

9 x 10-7m

9 x 10-3m

9 x 107m

Answer Details

C = $\frac{ε_{o} A}{d}$

10-2 x 10-6 = $\frac{9 \times 10^{- 12}}{d}$ x 10-4

= 9 x 10-7m
