2. Electric Potential and Capacitance
easy

A sphere of radius $1\,cm$ has potential of $8000\,V$, then energy density near its surface will be

A

$64 \times {10^5}\,J/{m^3}$

B

$8 \times {10^3}\,J/{m^3}$

C

$32\,J/{m^3}$

D

$2.83\,J/{m^3}$

Solution

(d) Energy density ${u_e} = \frac{1}{2}{\varepsilon _0}{E^2} = \frac{1}{2} \times 8.86 \times {10^{ – 12}} \times {\left( {\frac{V}{r}} \right)^2}$
$= 2.83\, J/m^3$
