An uncharged capacitor is fully charged with a battery. The ratio of energy stored in the capacitor to the work done by the battery in this process is
(1) 1:2
(2) 2:1
(3) 1:1
(4) 2:3
Answers
answer : option (1) 1 : 2
an uncharged capacitor of capacitance C is fully charged with a battery of EMF ε.
then stored in capacitor, Q = Cε
now workdone by the battery in this process , W = charge stored in capacitor × EMF of battery
= Qε = Cε²
energy stored in the capacitor, U = 1/2 Cε²
so ratio of energy stored to the workdone by this process = (1/2Cε²)/(Cε²) = 1/2
hence option (1) is correct choice.
