A parallel plate capacitor is two large flat plates separated by a:

ACharged battery
BSmall distance
CLarge distance
DThick metal wire
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Small distance
1. The plates are large and parallel. 2. The gap is tiny compared with the plate size. 3. So they are separated by a small distance. _Source: syllabus Physics Part I, Chapter 2, Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance._
