In the absence of other conductors, the surface charge density

A

Is proportional to the charge on the conductor and its surface area

B

Inversely proportional to the charge and directly proportional to the surface area

C

Directly proportional to the charge and inversely proportional to the surface area

D

Inversely proportional to the charge and the surface area

Answer

Directly proportional to the charge and inversely proportional to the surface area

Explanation

Solution

Surface charge density σ=qA\sigma = \frac{q}{A}
