RE-NEET 2024 Physics Energy Stored in Capacitors MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Easy-Class 12

A 12 pF capacitor is connected to a 50 V battery, the electrostatic energy stored in the capacitor in nJ is

A

15

B

7.5

C

0.3

D

150

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The energy stored in a capacitor is given by U = 0.5 * C * V². Substituting C = 12 pF and V = 50 V, U = 0.5 * 12 * 10⁻¹² F * (50)² V² = 15 nJ.
