Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
* For a given capacitor, the amount of charge (Q) acquired by each plate is proportional to the magnitude of the potential difference (V) between the plates.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Show, in case of a capacitor, potential difference V is proportional to the charge Q.

Detailed explanation-2: -No. Since capacitance is a proportionality constant, it depends neither on the charge on the plates nor on the potential. It only depends upon the size and shape of the capacitor and on the dielectric used between the plates.

Detailed explanation-3: -The amount of charge stored in a capacitor is directly proportional to the voltage applied across the capacitor.
