An uncharged capacitor is connected to a battery. On charging the capacitor,

  • A
    All the energy supplied is stored in the capacitor
  • B
    Half the energy supplied is stored in the capacitor
  • C
    The energy stored depends upon the capacity of the capacitor only
  • D
    The energy stored depends upon the time for which the capacitor is charged
