Question

The capacity of condenser is 5 uF & it's potential is 200 volt. The magnitude of charge on condenser is _____ ?

Answer 1

The magnitude of charge on the condenser is 0.001 C or 1 mC

-For a condenser, the relation between capacitance, voltage across the capacitor and charge on the capacitor plates, is given by,

Q = C. V

- Here, C = 5uF = 5 * 10^-6 C

            V = 200 V

-putting these values in the formula, we get Q = 10^-3 C or 0.001 C or 1 mC
