Answer

The maximum charge on the capacitor is $~~5.56\times 10^{-6}~C$

Work Step by Step

In part (a), we found that the total energy in the circuit is $1.98\times 10^{-6}~J$ We can find the maximum charge $q$ on the capacitor: $U_E = 1.98\times 10^{-6}~J$ $\frac{q^2}{2C} = 1.98\times 10^{-6}~J$ $q^2 = (1.98\times 10^{-6}~J)(2C)$ $q = \sqrt{(1.98\times 10^{-6}~J)(2)(7.80\times 10^{-6}~C)}$ $q = 5.56\times 10^{-6}~C$ The maximum charge on the capacitor is $~~5.56\times 10^{-6}~C$
