| Prove that from this experience the conclusion follows: as the distance between the plates decreases, the capacitance of the capacitor increases.
The capacitance of a capacitor is determined by the expression:
C = q / U
Because the charge on the plates does not change, and the voltage decreases as the distance between the plates decreases, then the electrical capacity will increase.
