A capacitor charged to 200 V has 2000 (iC of charge. The value of capacitance will be
A. 10 F
B. 10 uF
C. 100 nF
D. 1000 uF
Answer: Option B
Solution (By Examveda Team)
Here's the explanation for the capacitance problem:The question is about finding the capacitance of a capacitor.
First, remember the basic formula that connects charge (Q), voltage (V), and capacitance (C):
Q = C * V
where:
Q is the charge stored in the capacitor (in Coulombs).
C is the capacitance (in Farads).
V is the voltage across the capacitor (in Volts).
We are given:
Q = 2000 μC (which is 2000 * 10-6 Coulombs)
V = 200 V
We need to find C.
Rearrange the formula to solve for C:
C = Q / V
Substitute the given values:
C = (2000 * 10-6) / 200
C = 10 * 10-6 F
C = 10 μF (microFarads)
So, the correct answer is Option B: 10 uF.
