It would seem logical that if the attractive force between the charges
SUBSTANTIALLY decreases by r^2 then it doesn't seem logical that the
capacity to retain these charges(capacitance) in a capacitor decrease
only by r (even if space is the dielectric)?
F= kQq/r^2 (and capacitor's energy field: E = KQq/r^2) where as
Capacitance = Area/ (k * r)
<< These formulae are valid for any type of capacitor,
Wrong! Learn some basic electronics.
