Electrostatics Question 45
Question: A very thin sheet of aluminium is placed in between the plates of the condenser. Then the capacity [AIEEE 2003]
Options:
A) Will increase
B) Will decrease
C) Remains unchanged
D) May increase or decrease in certain conditions
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
Since aluminum is a metal, the electric field inside it will be zero. Hence it would not affect the field in between the two plates, so capacitance $ =\frac{q}{V}=\frac{q}{Ed} $ remains unchanged.
