How does the magnetic energy compare with the electrostatic energy stored in a capacitor?

Answer»

Solution :The magnetic energy per unit VOLUME is `mu_(B)=(U_(B))/(V)`
[where V is volume that contains flux)
`=(U_(B))/(Al)=(B)/(2mu_(0)).....(1)`
We have already obatined the relation for the electrostatic energy stored per unit volume in parallel plate capacitor.
`u_(E)=1/2 epsi_(0)E^(2)....(2)`
In both the cases energy is proportional to the square of the field strength.
