Which outcome occurs when mechanical stress decreases dielectric thickness?

💡 Explanation

Capacitance increases when a capacitor's plate separation (the dielectric mechanical stress dimension) is decreased because of the inverse relationship in the capacitance equation. Therefore capacitance increases, rather than breakdown being mitigated or altered permittivity at zero stress.
