Question
What is the capacitance of an oscillating $L C$ circuit if the maximum charge on the capacitor is 1.60$\mu \mathrm{C}$ and the total energy is 140$\mu \mathrm{J} ?$
Step 1
Step 1: We know that the potential energy stored in a capacitor is given by the formula: \[U = \frac{1}{2}CQ^2\] where \(U\) is the potential energy, \(C\) is the capacitance, and \(Q\) is the charge. Show more…
