MCQ
The uniform field between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is E volt/meter. If the distance between the plates is $d ( m )$ and the area of each plate is $A \left( m ^2\right)$, then the total energy stored in it is :
  • $\frac{1}{2} \in_0 E ^2 A d$
  • B
    $\frac{ E ^2 A d}{\in_0}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2} \in_0 E^2$
  • D
