The energy stored in a capacitor of capacitance \(10 \mu \mathrm{~F}\) when charged to a potential of 6 kV is

  1. A 100 J
  2. B 200 J
  3. C 180 J
  4. D 160 J
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 180 J

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( E = \frac{1}{2} C V^2 \) \( E = \frac{1}{2} (10 \times 10^{-6} \, \mathrm{F}) (6 \times 10^3 \, \mathrm{V})^2 \) \( E = 180 \, \mathrm{J} \)
