Answer:
38.4\times 10^{-12}
Explanation:
A = Area of the capacitor plate = 46.1 cm² = 46.1 x 10⁻⁴ m²
d = separation between the plates of capacitor = 10.7 mm = 10.7 x 10⁻³ m
Capacitance of the capacitor is given as
[tex]C = \frac{\epsilon _{o}A}{d}[/tex]
[tex]C = \frac{(8.85\times 10^{-12})(46.1\times 10^{-4})}{(10.7\times 10^{-3})}[/tex]
[tex]C = 3.8\times 10^{-12}[/tex]
[tex]V [/tex] = battery Voltage = 10.1 Volts
[tex]Q [/tex] = Charge stored by the capacitor
Charge stored by the capacitor is given as
[tex]Q = CV [/tex]
[tex]Q = (3.8\times 10^{-12})(10.1) [/tex]
[tex]Q = 38.4\times 10^{-12} [/tex]
