A parallel plate capacitor is made by stacking n equally spaced plates connected alternatively. If the capacitance between any two adjacent plates is C then the resultant capacitance is
  1. $(n-1) C$
  2. $(n+1) C$
  3. $C$
  4. $nC$

Solution

$C_{e q}=(n-1) C(\because$ all capacitors are in parallel $)$
