as we know electrostatic energy = 1/2 CV2 where c is capacitance v is potential so keeping the values in the formula we get (1/2) X 900 X 10-12 X (100)2 = 9 X 10-6 J this answers first part f the problem now after disconnecting it is joined to another 900pF capacitor in series therefore now new capacitance...

Its 4.5 micro joules as the stored energy is given by E=(1/2)*C*V^2

The charge on the capacitor is Q = CV = 900 × 1012 F × 100 V = 9 × 108 C The energy stored in the capacitor = (1/2) CV2 = (1/2) QV = (1/2) × 9 × 108 C × 100 V = 4.5 × 10% J

Problem Cracker

Electrostatic energy E=0.5*C*V^2 so your answer is E=0.5*900*10000=4.5*10^6 pJ

__________ of the following is not a fundamental postulate of Bohr’s theory of hydrogen atom. (The total energy of the electron in one of it allowed orbit remains constant as long as it remains in the same orbit, An electron can not revolve in an arbitrary orbit. Only those orbits are possible for which the angular momentum of the electron about the nucleus is an integral multiple of h/2p, The electron can move in all possible orbits, An atom radiates energy only when an electron jumps from an allowed orbit of higher energy En to one of the lower energy Ep)
