Capacitance Calculator

How to Use the Capacitance Calculator

1. Enter the area of the plates (A) in square meters (m²).
2. Enter the distance between the plates (d) in meters (m).
3. Enter the permittivity of the dielectric material (ε) in Farads per meter (F/m).
4. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the capacitance.
5. The result will be displayed in Farads (F).

Working Principle

The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is given by the formula:

C = ε * A / d

Where:

• C = Capacitance in Farads (F)
• ε = Permittivity of the dielectric in Farads per meter (F/m)
• A = Area of the plates in square meters (m²)
• d = Distance between the plates in meters (m)

This calculator is useful for engineers and physicists who need to calculate the capacitance of parallel plate capacitors for various applications.
