Capacitance gain using conductive core for inductors [closed]

This question cannot be answered in its current form, because critical information is missing.

This question was closed; new answers can no longer be added. Users with the reopen privilege may vote to reopen this question if it has been improved or closed incorrectly.

I have learnt that if we have 2 parallel conductive plates and we seperate them the capacitance is increased if we put a good conductor between the plates.

Now the resonant frequency of a inductor(1mH) is about 100kHz which doesnt make it practical for application when the desired output frequency is at the Hz range.

The capacitance of such an inductor is somewhat close to 0.1pF.If we have a inductor with a conducting core is the capacitance of the inductor increased and if yes can it reach 1mF so it will be usefull for low Hz applications?

It is unclear what the question is asking.

The way the post is written, it sounds like the OP is thinking of a parallel-plate inductor. Is that correct, MissMulan‭?

@Joel: "parallel plate inductor" doesn't make much sense.

Olin Lathrop‭, yes, that's the point I was trying to make. I was hoping that the OP would get it.
