Answer

a. 0

Work Step by Step

The is "no capacitor" during the time the separation between two capacitors plates becomes zero and the plates touch. Since Capacitance C is inversely proportional the the plate spacing d, C--> ∞ as d --> 0. Furthermore, the capacitive reactance is inversely proportional to C, so Xc --> 0 s C-->∞
