Detailed Solution
⇒Select in small strip of dx, at a distance x from left.⇒tanα=yx⇒y=xtanα=xαFor small angles tanα=α⇒distance between plates at a distance x=d+xα⇒Capacitance of this element can be written as, ⇒dC=ε0dAd+αx⇒dC=ε0adxd+αx ⇒All such elements are connected in parallel, integration will give total capacitance ⇒∫0adC=∫0aε0adxd+αx ⇒C= ε0a∫0adxd+αx⇒C=ε0aαlnd+αx0a ∵ ∫1axdx=logaxddxax+C ⇒C=ε0aαln1+αad⇒C≃ε0a2d1−αa2d ln1+x =x1−x2
