PHYSICS WORKSHEET
CLASS- XII
TOPIC: Capacitance
NAME: DATE: ROLL. NO.:
1. Write the physical quantity having unit coulomb/volt. Is it a scalar or vector?
2. Two capacitors are connected in series and another two in parallel. Which
combination has higher capacitance and why?
3. A metal plate is inserted between the plates of a capacitor without touching them.
What happens to the capacitance and why?
4. How does the energy stored in a capacitor associated with the voltage?
5. What is the role of a dielectric in a capacitor?
Does it increase charge, potential difference, or capacitance? Justify.
6. How does the shape and size of capacitor plates affect capacitance?
7. Three capacitors each of capacitance C are connected in series. Find the equivalent
capacitance. Repeat for parallel connection.
