The capacitance of a variable radio capacitor can be changed from 50 pF to 950 pF By tuning the dial from 0 to 180°. With the dial set at 180°, the capacitor is connected to a 400 V Battery. After charging, the capacitor is disconnected from the battery and the dial is turned to 0. What is the potential difference across the capacitor when the dial reads 0?
