A 5-v battery is connected across the plates of a 2.0\(\mu\)F uncharged parallel plate capacitor. The charge on the capacitor after a long time is

  • A. 2.5\(\mu\)C
  • B. 10.0\(\mu\)C
  • C. 20.0\(\mu\)C
  • D. 50.0\(\mu\)C

Correct Answer: B. 10.0\(\mu\)C

Explanation

Q = cv

= 2 x 10-6 x 5

= 10 x 10-6C

= 10.0\(\mu\)C
