There are different ways to calculate the electric potential energy stored in a capacitor.

Among these forms we have:

Form 1:

U = (CV ^ 2) / 2

Form 2:

U = (Q ^ 2) / 2C

Form 3:

U = (QV) / 2

Where,

Q: load

C: capacitance

V: voltage.

Answer:

U = (CV ^ 2) / 2

U = (Q ^ 2) / 2C

U = (QV) / 2
