(a) A teaching assistant connects a 4.00 V battery to the plates of a capacitor. After waiting a while, the capacitor reaches a maximum amount of 31.0 μC of stored charge. What is the value of the capacitance (in µF)? UF (b) The capacitor is disconnected from the battery, discharged, and then connected to a 20.0 V battery. Again, a long enough time is waited for the capacitor to fully charge. How much charge (in μC) is stored now? (Assume the capacitor can handle this new voltage without failing.)
