A capacitor is being charged. A graph is plotted to show the variation of the charge QQQ on the capacitor (on the vertical axis) with the potential difference VVV across it (on the horizontal axis). Which quantities can be calculated from the gradient of the graph and the area under the graph?
Gradient: reciprocal of capacitance; Area: energy stored
Gradient: capacitance; Area: electrical power
Gradient: reciprocal of capacitance; Area: electrical power
Gradient: capacitance; Area: energy stored
