Answer:
13.98 nC
Explanation:
Capacitance depends upon the area of the plates and their distance of separation.
Radius = r = 0.071 m
separation = d = 0.00126 m
[tex]C = \frac{\kappa \epsilon _{o} A }{d}[/tex]
here κ = 1 and ε₀ = 8.85 ₓ 10⁻¹² SI units , for free space.
Area = A = π r² = 0.0158 m²
C = [( 8.85 ₓ 10⁻¹² ) ( 0.0158) ]÷ (0.00126) = 1.11 x 10⁻¹⁰ F
Charge = Q = C V = ( 1.11 x 10⁻¹⁰ F )(126) = 13.98 nC
= 14 nC ( rounded to two significant digits)
