$A$ parallel plate capacitor has a uniform electric field $E$ in the space between the plates. If the distance between the plates is $d$ and the area of each plate is $A$,the energy stored in the capacitor is (where $\epsilon_{0}$ is the permittivity of free space).

  • A
    $\frac{1}{2} \frac{\epsilon_{0} EA}{d}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2} \epsilon_{0} E^{2} Ad$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2} \frac{\epsilon_{0} Ad}{E^{2}}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2} \frac{\epsilon_{0} E^{2} A}{d}$
