Physics Question on electrostatic potential and capacitance

The energy stored in capacitor is actually stored:

A

on the outer surface of the plates

B

on negative plate

C

between the plate

D

on the positive plate

Answer

between the plate

Explanation

Solution

It is quite clear that energy stored in a capacitor is in the form of electrostatic energy. Hence actually it is stored between the plates of capacitor.
