Question

How would the capacitance of an air capacitor change if the gap between its plates be filled with

1. Dielectric material:
2. Conducting material

Answer 1

Dear Student ,
When an dielectric material is filled between the gaps of the air capacitor then the capacitance of the capacitor increases .
Now when the conducting material is introduced then the two capacitors in parallel working hence also the capacitance of the whole capacitor increases .
