The graph shows the variation of volatage 'v' across the plates of two capacitors A & B versus increase of charge 'Q' stored on them. Which of the two capacitors has higher capacitance? Give reason.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`C=(Q)/(V)=(1)/("slope")`
As slope of A is smaller capacitance of A is higher.
