b (b) The energy density of parallel plate capacitor is given by $U = \frac{1}{2}{\varepsilon _0}{E^2} = \frac{1}{2}{\varepsilon _0}{\left( {\frac{V}{d}} \right)^2}$
$ = \frac{1}{2} \times 8.85 \times {10^{ - 12}}\,{C^2}/N{m^2} \times {\left( {\frac{{300\,volt}}{{2 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}\,m}}} \right)^2}$$ = 0.1\,J/{m^3}$

A capacitor is charged with a battery and energy stored is $U$. After disconnecting battery another capacitor of same capacity is connected in parallel to the first capacitor. Then energy stored in each capacitor is
For changing the capacitance of a given parallel plate capacitor, a dielectric material of dielectric constant $K$ is used, which has the same area as the plates of the capacitor. The thickness of the dielectric slab is $\frac{3}{4} d$, where $'d'$ is the separation between the plates of parallel plate capacitor. The new capacitance $(C')$ in terms of original capacitance $\left( C _{0}\right)$ is given by the following relation
A $10\,\mu F$ capacitor and a $20\,\mu F$ capacitor are connected in series across a $200\;V$ supply line. The charged capacitors are then disconnected from the line and reconnected with their positive plates together and negative plates together and no external voltage is applied. What is the potential difference across each capacitor
Four charges $2C, -3C, -4C$ and $5C$ respectively are placed at all the corners of a square. Which of the following statements is true for the point of intersection of the diagonals ?
A charge $Q$ is distributed over three concentric spherical shell of radii $a, b, c (a < b < c)$ such that their surface charge densities are equal to one another. The total potential at a point at distance $r$ from their common centre, where $r < a$, would be
A parallel plate capacitor has plate of length $'l',$ width $'w'$ and separation of plates is $'d'.$ It is connected to a battery of emf $V$. A dielectric slab of the same thickness '$d$' and of dielectric constant $k =4$ is being inserted between the plates of the capacitor. At what length of the slab inside plates, will be energy stored in the capacitor be two times the initial energy stored$?$
