Question

If a voltage across a capacitor is tripled the stored charge is

Answer 1

charge stored by a capacitor, Q =CV
where C is the capacitance and V is the voltage and C is the Capacitance of the Capacitor
So, if the voltage, V is tripled , the charge stored also triples (from the formula)

Answer 2

Answer: The correct answer is "tripled".

Explanation:

The expression for the charge stored in the capacitor is as follows;

Q=CV

Here, Q is the stored charge, C is the capacitance and V is the voltage.

It is given in the problem that a voltage across a capacitor is tripled.

The stored charge in capacitor is directly proportional to the voltage across a capacitor.

Therefore, if a voltage across a capacitor is tripled the stored charge is tripled.
