Question:

In which of the following forms is the energy stored in a capacitor?

Options:

Electric field

Capacitance

Charge

Potential

Correct Answer:

Electric field

Explanation:

Energy density in an between plates of capacitor is given by $ u = \frac{1}{2} \epsilon_0 E^2$

Hence energy is stored in electric field.
