Each plate of a capacitor stores a charge of magnitude 1 mC when a 100 V potential difference is applied. The capacitance is:

Each plate of a capacitor stores a charge of magnitude 1 mC when a 100 V potential difference is applied. The capacitance is:

Explanation
  • Charge:

  • Voltage:
    V = 100,text{V}

  • The formula for capacitance is:

Calculation:


C = frac{1 times 10^{-3}}{100} = 1 times 10^{-5},text{F} = 10,mutext{F}
