Answer: (a) The capacitor potential difference increases with time when capacitor is being charged.

Step-by-step explanation:

A capacitor is a device which is used to store electric energy as charge.

As a capacitor is charged, its potential difference increases gradually with time.

Potential difference in a capacitor depends on shape and size of the electrodes used in capacitor.

Potential difference is created between two plates of a capacitor when it is fully charged.

The charge stored on the plates of the capacitor is directly proportional to the voltage.
