A 600 pF capacitor is charged by a 150 V battery. The charge on the capacitor is:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → 90 nC
Given:
Capacitance, $C = 600\,pF = 600 \times 10^{-12}\,F$
Potential difference, $V = 150\,V$
Charge on the capacitor:
$Q = C \times V$
$Q = 600 \times 10^{-12} \times 150 = 9.0 \times 10^{-8}\,C$
∴ Charge on the capacitor = $9.0 \times 10^{-8}\,C$
