MCQ
An uncharged capacitor is connected to a battery. On charging the capacitor
  • A
    All the energy supplied to stored in the capacitor
  • Half the energy supplied is stored in the capacitor
  • C
    The energy stored depends upon the capacity of the capacitor only
  • D
    The enrgy stored depends upon the time for which the capacitor is charged

Answer

Correct option: B.
Half the energy supplied is stored in the capacitor
b
In charging half of energy supplied by the battery is lost in the form of heat

From a carbon nanotube of $1 \,\mu m$ length and $1 \,nm$ radius. $10$ electrons have been removed. Assume the resulting positive charge to be distributed umforrnly over the surface of the tube. The energy of an electron moving in a stable circular orbit around the axis along the length of the tube is calculated by applying the Bohr model. Accordingly, the frequency of radiation required to excite an electron from its ground state to the next level is in the range of (charge of the electron, $e =1.60 \times 10^{-19} \,C$; mass of the electron, $m _{ e }=9.11 \times 10^{-31} \,kg$; Planck's constant, $h =6.63 \times 10^{-34} \,Js$; Permittivity of free space, $\left.\varepsilon_0=8.85 \times 10^{-12}\,F / m \right)$
