Assertion: The capacitance of a capacitor remains the same even if the charge is varied on it.
Reason: Capacitance depends upon nearly medium as well as size and shape of capacitor.


Important Questions on Capacitance
: Energy stored in a capacitor is equal to the work done in charging it.

Assertion : The force with which one plate of a parallel plate capacitor is attracted towards the other plate is equal to square of surface density per per unit area
Reason : The electric field due to one charged plate of the capacitor at the location of the other is equal to surface density per


Three capacitors, each of capacitance $C$ and of breakdown voltage are joined in series. The capacitance and breakdown voltage of the combination will be



A parallel plate capacitor has uniform electric field in the space between the plates.If the distance between the plates is and area of each plate is , the energy stored in the capacitor is ;

Two thin dielectric slabs of dielectric constants and are inserted between plates of a parallel plate capacitor, as shown in the figure. The variation of electric field between the plates with distance as measured from plate is correctly shown by:
