4. \({1 \over2}CV^2\)
A parallel plate condenser has a uniform electric field \(E\)(V/m) in the space between the plates. If the distance between the plates is \(d\)(m) and area of each plate is \(A(\text{m}^2)\), the energy (joule) stored in the condenser is:
1. | \(\dfrac{1}{2}\varepsilon_0 E^2\) | 2. | \(\varepsilon_0 EAd\) |
3. | \(\dfrac{1}{2}\varepsilon_0 E^2Ad\) | 4. | \(\dfrac{E^2Ad}{\varepsilon_0}\) |

Surface charge density on the positive plate of a charged parallel plate capacitor is \(\sigma.\) Energy density in the electric field of the capacitor is:

Five equal capacitors connected in series have a resultant capacitance of \(4~\mu\text{F}\). The total energy stored in these when these are connected in parallel and charged to \(400\) V is:

3. \(16~\text{J}\)
4. \(4~\text{J}\)
A series combination of \(n_1\) capacitors, each of value \(C_1\), is charged by a source of potential difference \(4\) V. When another parallel combination of \(n_2\) capacitors, each of value \(C_2\), is charged by a source of potential difference \(V\), it has the same (total) energy stored in it as the first combination has. The value of \(C_2\) in terms of \(C_1\) is:
1. \(\frac{2C_1}{n_1n_2}\)
2. \(16\frac{n_2}{n_1}C_1\)
3. \(2\frac{n_2}{n_1}C_1\)
4. \(\frac{16C_1}{n_1n_2}\)

4. | increases by a factor of \(2\). |

4. | The charge on the capacitor is not conserved |
Two condensers of capacity \(0.3~\mu\text{F}\) and \(0.6~\mu\text{F}\) are connected in series. The combination is connected across a potential of \(6\) V. The ratio of energies stored by the condensers will be:

3. | \(96 \times10^{-6}~\text{J}\) | 4. | \(24 \times10^{-6}~\text{J}\) |
