If the charge on a capacitor is increased by \(2C\), the energy stored in it increases by \(44 \%\). The original charge on the capacitor is (in \(C\) )
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(10\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(U \propto q ^{2}\)
\(\Rightarrow q _{ f }=1.2 \,q\)
\(q _{ f }- q =2\)
\(\Rightarrow 1.2 \,q - q =2\)
\(q =10\)
