Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the potential difference across a capacitor if it has a capacitance of 5μF and stores a charge of 10μC?
  • Step 1: Identify the formula for potential difference (V) across a capacitor, which is V = Q / C.
  • Step 2: Note the values given in the question: charge (Q) is 10μC and capacitance (C) is 5μF.
  • Step 3: Substitute the values into the formula: V = 10μC / 5μF.
  • Step 4: Perform the division: 10μC divided by 5μF equals 2V.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the potential difference across the capacitor is 2V.
