    Two capacitors each of capacity 2 \[\mu \]F are connected in parallel. If they are connected to 100 V battery, then energy stored in them is :

    A)  0.02 J                                   

    B)  0.04 J

    C)  0.01 J                                   

    D)  200 J

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     The energy stored is given by \[E=\frac{1}{2}C{{V}^{2}}\] When capacitors are connected in parallel, resultant capacitance is \[C'={{C}_{1}}+{{C}_{2}}=2\mu F+2\mu F=4\mu F,V=100\,Volt\] \[\therefore \]  \[E=\frac{1}{2}\times 4\times {{10}^{-6}}\times {{(100)}^{2}}\]                 \[E=0.02\,J\]
