  1. Answer:

    A charged capacitor stores energy in the electrical field between its plates. As the capacitor is being charged, the electrical field builds up. When a charged capacitor is disconnected from a battery, its energy remains in the field in the space between its plates.

    Explanation:

    In order to charge a capacitor certain work is done against the electrostatic force of repulsion, This work done is stored in the form of electric energy of the capacitor. The energy density of a capacitor is the energy stored per unit volume. It is denoted by u.
