Question
How do I: a.) find the energy in a 3.50x10^-5f parallel plate capacitor if it holds 2.00x10^-3c of charge
b.)find the voltage between the plates
c.)determine the new voltage after doubling the stored energy
b.)find the voltage between the plates
c.)determine the new voltage after doubling the stored energy

a. Q = C*V
Solve for V.
Energy = C*V^2/2
b. Calculated V in part a.
c. To double the stored energy, multiply
V by the square root of 2:
The new voltage = sqrt(2) * V.
