Questions  

Four metallic plates, each with a surface area of one side A, are placed at a distance d from each other. The plates reconnected as shown in the fig.
 

Then the capacitance of the system between A and B is

a
3ε0Ad
b
2ε0Ad
c
23ε0Ad
d
32ε0Ad

detailed solution

Correct option is D

The equivalent arrangement of given combination is shown in fig.Capacitance between a and D is given by1Cab=1C+1C=2C  or   Cab=C2=12ε0Ad∴ CAB=C+12ε0Ad=ε0Ad+12ε0Ad=32ε0Ad
