The capacitance of a conductor does not depend upon

1. Charge
2. Voltage
3. Nature of the material
4. All of these

Correct answer: All of these

Solution

Capacitance of an isolated conductor depends on its size, shape, and surrounding medium. It does not depend on the charge or potential of the conductor, and for a given conductor it is not determined by the material in the way the question suggests. Hence the intended answer is 'All of these'.
