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
Given :
`A = pir^2 = pi xx (5 xx 10^-2)^2`
`d = 1.0 xx 10^-3 "m"`
`∈_0 = 8.85 xx 10^-12 F/m`
`therefore C = (∈_0A)/d`
= `(8.85 xx 10^-12 xx 3.14 xx 25 xx 10^-4)/10^-3`
= `6.95 xx 10^-5 uF`
