$A$ parallel plate capacitor has a uniform electric field $E \ (V/m)$ in the space between the plates. If the distance between the plates is $d \ (m)$ and the area of each plate is $A \ (m^2)$,then the energy (joules) stored in the capacitor is:

  • A
    $E^2 Ad / \epsilon_0$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2} \epsilon_0 E^2$
  • C
    $\epsilon_0 EAd$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2} \epsilon_0 E^2 Ad$
