Question 35 • Physics

Which statements describe a fully charged capacitor? Choose three correct answers.

Answer
A
There is no potential difference between the plates.
B
Both plates have the same amount of charge.
C
There is a potential difference between the plates.
D
Electric potential energy is released.
E
Both plates have the same type of charge.
F
Electric potential energy is stored.

Explanation

A charged capacitor stores electric potential energy in the electric field between its plates, so C is correct. Its plates have opposite charges, creating a potential difference, so D is correct and A and E are not. The plates carry equal amounts of charge with opposite signs, so F is correct.
