Answer:

[tex]4.12\times 10^{-5}\ J[/tex].

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitance, [tex]C=1.4\times 10^{-7}\ F[/tex]

Charge stored in the capacitor, [tex]Q=3.4\times 10^{-6}\ C[/tex]

We need to find the electric potential energy stored in the capacitor. The formula for the electric potential energy stored in the capacitor is given by :

[tex]E=\dfrac{Q^2}{2C}[/tex]

Put all the values,

[tex]E=\dfrac{(3.4\times 10^{-6})^2}{2\times 1.4\times 10^{-7}}\\\\=4.12\times 10^{-5}\ J[/tex]

So, the required electric potential eenergy is equal to [tex]4.12\times 10^{-5}\ J[/tex].
