The energy stored in a sphere of 10 cm radius when the sphere is charged to a potential difference of 300 V is


  1. 4×107J
  2. 5×107J
  3. 3×106J
  4. 2×106J

A
4×107J
B
5×107J
C
3×106J
D
2×106J
Solution
Verified by Toppr

The capacitance of spherical capacitor is given as: C=4πϵRrRr
The constant K=14πϵ0=9×109 Farad/m
If R C=4πϵr
For r=10 cm; C=0.19×109
The energy stored in a capacitor is given as: E=12CV2
E=12Cv2=12×10109×3002J

E=5×107J
