is that property of a capacitor which delays any change of voltage across it ?
Correct answer: B. Capacitance
- A. Inductance
- B. Capacitance
- C. Potential gradient
- D. None of the above
Explanation
Capacitance causes voltage to change gradually because i = C dv/dt; a finite current cannot produce an instantaneous voltage change across an ideal capacitor. Inductance similarly opposes sudden current changes, not voltage changes.
