The mean electric energy density between...

The mean electric energy density between the plates of a charged capacitor is (here `q =` charge on the capacitor and `A =` area o fthe capacitor plate)

A

`(q^(2))/(2epsilon_(0)A^(2))`

B

`(q)/(2epsilon_(0)A^(2))`

C

`(q^(2))/(2epsilon_(0)A)`

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Mean electric energy density between plates is
`u=(1)/(2)epsilon_(0)E^(2)`
`"so, "u=(1)/(2)epsilon_(0)((sigma)/(epsilon_(0)))^(2)=(sigma^(2))/(2epsilon_(0))=(1)/(2)(q^(2))/(epsilon_(0)A^(2))`
