(a) x = 1/2(u + v) (b) x = 1/2(u - v) (c) x = 1/u^2 (d) x = uv^2 (e) x = u^2 +v^2

You want to determine the energy stored in a capacitor for agiven voltage. You measure the capacitance C and the appliedvoltage V and calculate the energy from U = 0.5CV².Which of the quantities, C or V, should you measure most carefully(with the smallest relative uncertainty) to obtain the mostreliable value (smallest relative uncertainty) for U?

A. C because you cannot trust the printed value of acapacitance.

B. V because its value is usually larger than the value ofC.

C. You should measure C and V equally carefully because bothenter the equation for U.

D. V because it is squared in the equation.
