Answer:

Elastic potential energy,
E=2.35* 10^(-8)\ J

Step-by-step explanation:

Charge,
q=9.4* 10^(-10)\ C

Potential, V = 50 V

It is required to find the electric potential energy in a capacitor stored in it. The formula of the electric potential energy in a capacitor is given by :


E=(1)/(2)qV\\\\E=(1)/(2)* 9.4* 10^(-10)* 50\\\\E=2.35* 10^(-8)\ J

So, the electric potential energy stored in the capacitor is
2.35* 10^(-8)\ J
