12th Class Physics Electrostatics & Capacitance Question Bank Assertion And Reason (MCQs) - Electric Potential and Capacitance

  • question_answer
    ASSERTION: Increasing the charge on the plates of a capacitor means increasing the capacitance.
    REASON: Capacitance is directly proportional to charge.

    A) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

    B) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

    C) If assertion is true but reason is false.

    D) If both assertion and reason are false.

    E) If assertion is false but reason is true.

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    On increasing the charge, potential increases. But capacity of a capacitor is fixed by geometry of condenser \[\left( C=\frac{{{\varepsilon }_{0}}A}{d} \right)\] capacitance is independent of charge.
