Question

The area under the current-time graph is equivalent to
Options
A Dielectric
B Potential difference
C Magnitude of charge
Correct Answer
D Capacitance
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Since I = dQ/dt, integrating current over time (the area under an I–t graph) gives the total charge, Q = ∫I dt.

Hint

Recall that current is the rate of flow of charge, so integrating it over time recovers total charge.
