Which consequence results when a lower dielectric constant material replaces ceramic in a capacitor?

A)Reduced capacitance for a given size
B)Increased energy storage capabilities occur
C)Faster discharge rates will dominate
D)Voltage rating becomes significantly limited

💡 Explanation

A reduced dielectric constant lowers capacitance because polarization decreases during charging, therefore less charge accumulates at a given voltage, rather than increasing either the energy storage or voltage handling of the device.
