M and N are the plates of unequal areas of a parallel plate capacitor. Let `A_(1) and A_(2)` be the areas of M and N. let `A_(1) gt A_(2)`, M and N are connected to the +ve and -ve terminals of a battery. If `Q^(+) and Q^(-)` are the charges on the plates M and N respectively, then

A

`Q^(+) gt Q^(-)`

B

`Q^(+) lt Q^(-)`

C

`Q^(+) =Q^(-)`

D

`Q^(+)` very large and `Q^(-)` is negligible

Text Solution
