C=AEo/d
where Eo=dielectric constant
capacitance is directly related to dielectric constant

I can't understand this solution because here Eo is permittivity. How get this solution? Please tell me.

Vidya said:   9 years ago
Permitivity means strengh of the field which allows the field to be exit. If E0 is small indicates it is weak field and hence capacitance is small.
