A capacitor is charged with 9muC and has a 100V p.d. between the plates. Calculate its capacity and energy stored in it, if airis trapped between the plates.

Answer»

SOLUTION :Data supplied,
`Q=9muC =9 XX 10^(-6)C ""V=100V`
Capacity, `C=Q/V=(9 xx 10^(-6))/(100)=9 xx 10^(-8)F`
Energy, `U=1/2 CV^(2)=1/2 QV=1/2 Q^(2)/C`
`therefore U=1/2 xx 9 xx 10^(-6) xx 100=4.5 xx 10^(-4)J`
