The charge and energy stored in the capacitor of capacity `32muF`, when it is charged to a potential difference of 0.6 kV are respectively

A

`1.92xx10^(-2)C,5.76J`

B

`2.92xx10^(-2)C,5.76J`

C

`1.92xx10^(2)C,5.76J`

D

`1.92xx10^(-2)C,4.76J`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Q = CV
`=32xx10^(-6)xx0.6xx10^(3)=1.92xx10^(-2)C`
`E=1/2CV^(2)=(32xx10^(-6)xx(0.6xx10^(3))^(2))/2=5.76J.`
