Workdone & Energy Stored in a Capacitor
Topic Content:
Workdone in a Capacitor:
The work done in a capacitor is the workforce required to move a unit positive charge from infinity to that point.
W = qV
W = F × d
Fd = qV
Therefore F = \( \frac{qV}{d} \)
But E = \( \frac{qV}{d} \; \times \; \frac{1}{q}\)
But E = \( \frac{\not{q}V}{d} \; \times \; \frac{1}{\not{q}}\)
E = \( \frac{V}{d} \)
Energy Stored in a Capacitor:
A capacitor is a two-terminal electrical device that can store energy in the form of an electric charge. Initially, the charge on the plates is q =
