What is the energy stored, in units of nanoJoules, on a 14.8 nF capacitor when the voltage applied across the capacitor is 7.2 V?

Answer:
383.6 nJ
Explanation:
The energy stored in a capacitor is given by the formula:
[tex]E=\frac{1}{2}CV^2[/tex]
where
C is the capacitance
V is the voltage applied
In this problem, we have
C = 14.8 nF is the capacitance of the capacitor
V = 7.2 V is the voltage
Substituting into the equation, we find:
[tex]E=\frac{1}{2}(14.8 nF)(7.2 V)^2=383.6 nJ[/tex]
The energy stored will be 3.83616e-7 J
Since the energy stored is given by
E = 1/2 CV²
So putting the values
E = 1/2 * 1.48e-8 * (7.2)²
E = 3.83616e-7 Joules
