Copper being more reactive than silver, displaces silver from the silver nitrate solution.
When the copper plate is kept in a silver nitrate solution, silver from the solution gets deposited on the copper plate. 

The displacement reaction so observed is as follows:
2AgNO3(aq)+Cu(s)   CuNO32 (aq)+2Ag(s)
