alleryA capacitor with a large capacitance can hold a large charge at a:
AHuge voltage
BZero charge
CHigh frequency
DSmall voltage
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Small voltage
1. V equals Q divided by C.
2. Large C makes V small for a given Q.
3. So it stores a lot of charge at a small voltage.
