Question

An uncharged capacitor is connected to a battery. On charging the capacitor

  1. All the energy supplied is stored in the capacitor    
  2. Half the energy supplied is stored in the capacitor    
  3. The energy stored depends upon the capacity of the capacitor only    
  4. The energy stored depends upon the time for which the capacitor is charged    

The correct answer is: Half the energy supplied is stored in the capacitor
