A parallel plate capacitor with plates of 100 cm² and a gap of 0.5 mm filled with mica of relative permittivity 6 has a capacitance of about

  • A.106 pF
  • B.1.06 nF
  • C.177 pF
  • D.10.6 nF

Answer: B

The area is \( 10^{-2} \) m², so \( 6 \times 8.854 \times 10^{-12} \times 10^{-2}/(5 \times 10^{-4}) = 1.06 \times 10^{-9} \) F. Mica capacitors of this construction were the standard precision component before plastic films displaced them.
