← ScienceWhich outcome occurs the gap distance decreases on a parallel plate capacitor used in a resonant LC circuit?
A)Resonant frequency decreases✓
B)Voltage discharge accelerates
C)Impedance matching stabilizes
D)Dielectric breakdown risk increases
💡 Explanation
The resonant frequency decreases because the capacitance rises due to the decreased gap and increased electric field density; the resonant frequency shift is driven by changes in `capacitance`. Therefore, lowering the resonant frequency occurs, rather than only affecting voltage or dielectric concerns at high gradients.
