As Capacitance C = q/V, C varies with q if V remains the same (connected to a fixed potential elec source). So, with decreased distance q increases, and so C increases.

AI Customer ServiceExplanation: Larger plate area results in more field flux (charge collected on the plates) for a given field force (voltage across the plates). PLATE SPACING: All other factors being equal, further plate spacing gives less capacitance; closer plate spacing gives greater capacitance.
As distance between two capacitor plates decreases, capacitance increases - given that the dielectric and area of the capacitor plates remain the same. So, why does this occur? As distance between two capacitor plates decreases, capacitance increases - given that the dielectric and area of the capacitor plates remain the same.
Explanation: Closer spacing results in a greater field force (voltage across the capacitor divided by the distance between the plates), which results in a greater field flux (charge collected on the plates) for any given voltage applied across the plates.
As Capacitance C = q/V, C varies with q if V remains the same (connected to a fixed potential elec source). So, with decreased distance q increases, and so C increases. Remember, that for any parallel plate capacitor V is not affected by distance, because: V = W/q (work done per unit charge in bringing it from on plate to the other) and W = F x d
which means that the capacitance of a plate is dependent on the distance between the plates. On increasing the area of the plates, you could accommodate more charges on the plates and this in turn will increase the electric field between the plates. Increase in electric field between the plates means the voltage across the plates increase as E=V/d.
where A is the area of the plate . Notice that charges on plate a cannot exert a force on itself, as required by Newton’s third law. Thus, only the electric field due to plate b is considered. At equilibrium the two forces cancel and we have The charges on the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor are of opposite sign, and they attract each other.
