If potential difference between plates of parallel plate capacitor is doubled then energy stored in it will ______?

Everyday Science / Physics — Multiple-choice practice

اگر متوازی پلیٹ کیپسیٹر کی پلیٹوں کے مابین ممکنہ فرق دوگنا ہوجاتا ہے تو پھر اس میں موجود توانائی ______ ہوگی؟

  1. A. Four times
  2. B. Remains same
  3. C. None of these
  4. D. Two times

Correct answer

Four times

Explanation

Explanation The energy stored in a capacitor is given by U = (1/2)CV². If the potential difference (V) is doubled: U ∝ V² U' ∝ (2V)² = 4V² So, the energy stored will increase by a factor of 4 .
