Answer #1

Solution :

The following quantities are given:

1. Capacitance of the given capacitor, C = 166 µF = 166 x 10-6 F

2. Potential difference applied across the capacitor, V = 150 Volt

For a capacitor, the relation between charge (Q), capacitance and potential difference applied is,

On rearranging, we get,

On substituting the given values of C and V, we get the amount of charge stored in the capacitor,
