Physics And Measurement Question 62
Question: If $ V $ denotes the potential difference across the plates of a capacitor of capacitance $ C $ , the dimensions of $ CV^{2} $ are
[CPMT 1982]
Options:
A) Not expressible in $ MLT $
B) $ ML{{T}^{-2}} $
C) $ M^{2}L{{T}^{-1}} $
D) $ ML^{2}{{T}^{-2}} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
$ \frac{1}{2}CV^{2}= $ Stored energy in a capacitor = $ [ML^{2}{{T}^{-2}}] $
