The Answer is correct using

€=½cv^2

40×2=5×10^-5×v^2

V^2=16000000

V=4000v

no...very wrong...myschool do d correctoin naw....it is 4v....1/2cv²....

formula is Q=CV

sorry the formula is Q=1/2(CV)

where q=charge, c=capacitor v =p.d or voltage

the answer is b

The answer is incorrect cos the formulae to use is 1/2CV2.after solving i got 4V.

Myschool.com the answer is 4V...half C V-square for energy stored in a capacitor...pls make corrections

the answer is 4v. according to the formula.
change it or you will be sued for wrong information. for your information my dad is a judge. try yourselves first and see.
