In a parallel plate capacitor, the distance between the plates is `d` and potential difference across the plate is `V`. Energy stored per unit volume between the plates of capacitor is

A

`(1)/(2)epsi_(0)(V^(2))/(x^(2))`

B

`(1)/(2)epsi_(0)(V^(2))/(x^(2))`

C

`(1)/(2)epsi_(0)(V)/(x)`

D

`(1)/(2)epsi_(0)(x^(2))/(V^(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`(E)/(V)=(1)/(2)epsi_(0)E^(2)=(1)/(2)epsi_(0)(V^(2))/(x^(2))" "[therefore E=(V)/(x)]`
