Answer:
Energy stored in original capacitor is [tex]32.89\times 10^6J[/tex]
Explanation:
We have given capacitance [tex]C=1.89F[/tex]
Capacitor is charged by [tex]V=59.9KV=59.9\times 10^3volt[/tex]
We to find energy stored in the capacitor when it is charged
Energy stored in original capacitor is equal to
[tex]E=\frac{1}{2}CV^2[/tex]
[tex]E=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.89\times (5.9\times 10^3)^2=32.89\times 10^6J[/tex]
So energy stored in original capacitor is [tex]32.89\times 10^6J[/tex]
