उत्तर
The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by `C = (∈_0A)/d`
Here,
A = Area of the plate
d = Distance between the parallel plates
Now,
Let the radius of the disc be r.
`therefore C = (∈_0A)/d = (∈_0(pir^2))/d`
⇒ `r = sqrt((cd)/(∈_0pi)`
⇒ `r = sqrt((1 xx (1 xx 10^-3))/(8.85 xx 10^-12 xx 3.14))` = `sqrt(35.98 xx 10^6) "m"`
⇒ `r ≈ sqrt(36 xx 10^6) "m" = 6 xx 10^3 "m" = 6 "km"`
Thus, the radius of the plates of the capacitor for the given configuration is 6 km.
