The Figure Below Shows Four Parallel Plate Capacitors: A, B

question 14

Multiple Choice

The figure below shows four parallel plate capacitors: A, B, C, and D. Each capacitor carries the same charge q and has the same plate area A. As suggested by the figure, the plates of capacitors A and C are separated by a distance d while those of B and D are separated by a distance 2d. Capacitors A and B are maintained in vacuum while capacitors C and D contain dielectrics with constant  = 5.
-Which list below places the capacitors in order of increasing capacitance?

• A)A, B, C, D
• B)B, A, C, D
• C)A, B, D, C
• D)B, A, D, C
• E)D, C, B, A
