Answer to Problem 48P

The answer is 2.3×103J .

Explanation of Solution

Given data:

Capacitance, C=4.2×104C

Distance between plates, d=1.5×103m

Side of square plates, 8.0cm

Formula used:

It is known that: PE=Q2dε0A

Where,

  PE is the potential energy or stored energy.

  Q is the charge.

  A is the area of the plate.

  d is the distance between plates.

Calculation:

Applying the formula to calculate the stored energy, PE=Q2dε0A

  PE=(4.2×104C)2(1.5×103m)(8.85×1012C2/Nm2)(8.0×102m)2

  PE=2.3×103J

Conclusion: The stored energy is 2.3×103J .
