Question

The charge when C = 0.001 μF and V = 1 kV is 
1. 0.001 C
2. 1 μC
3. 1 C
4. None of these

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : 1 μC

Concept:

• A capacitor is an electronic device that is used in an integrated circuit to store charges. 
• And the amount of charge stored in a capacitor is given as

\(C = \frac{Q}{V}\)

Here,

Q = the amount of charge,

V = potential difference across capacitor and

C = capacitance of a given capacitor

Calculation:

Given: C = 0.001 μF and V = 1 kV

Q = CV = 0.001 × 10^-6 × 1 × 10³ = 1 μC
