    A condenser of capacitance 6 \[\mu F\] was originally  charged to 10 V. Now potential difference is made 20 V. The increase in potential energy is

    A) \[3\times {{10}^{-4}}J\]                                

    B)  \[6\times {{10}^{-4}}J\]

    C) \[9\times {{10}^{-4}}J\]                                

    D)  \[12\times {{10}^{-4}}J\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                     \[\Delta U={{U}_{2}}-{{U}_{1}}=\frac{1}{2}CV_{2}^{2}-\frac{1}{2}CV_{1}^{2}\] \[\Delta U=\frac{1}{2}C(V_{2}^{2}-V_{1}^{2})\] \[\therefore \]  \[\Delta U=\frac{1}{2}\times 6\times {{10}^{-6}}[{{(20)}^{2}}-{{(10)}^{2}}]\]                 \[\Delta U=\frac{1}{2}\times 6\times {{10}^{-6}}[400-100]\]                 \[\Delta U=\frac{1}{2}\times 6\times {{10}^{-6}}\times 300=9\times {{10}^{-4}}J\]
