Parallel Plate Capacitors 2
From UO Physics Demonstration Catalog
Return to Capacitance
Description:
Capacitance can be varied by changing the interacting areas of the two plates. Two half circle plates can be adjusted to change to change the capacitance as measured by a capacitance meter.
Also available are multiple plate variable capacitors where one application was being used in radio tuner circuits.
