Exam-style question
Try this first
What is the formula for capacitance in a parallel plate capacitor?.
- A.C = Q / V
- B.C = V / Q
- C.C = Q * V
- D.C = Q + V
Model answer
What a good answer should say
- C = Q / V
Explanation
Why this works
The formula for capacitance (C) is defined as the charge (Q) stored per unit potential difference (V). This relationship is fundamental in understanding how capacitors function.
