If a 10-μF capacitor is charged so that it stores 2.0 × 10-3 J of energy, what is the voltage across it? Group of answer choices 20 V 10 V 5.0 V 15 V
Added by Heidi L.
Step 1
We are given the energy $E = 2.0 \times 10^{-3} \text{ J}$ and the capacitance $C = 10 \times 10^{-6} \text{ F}$. We need to find the voltage $V$. Rearranging the formula for $V$, we get: $V = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{C}}$ Show more…
