Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option C: Farad
1. Concept:

The International System of Units specifies a single derived unit to quantify how much electrical charge a device can store per volt of potential.

2. Formula:

$$ 1 \text{ F} = 1 \text{ C/V} $$

3. Solution:

  • The standard unit assigned to capacitance is the Farad (F).


4. Why other options are incorrect:

Coulomb is the unit for electrical charge. Volt is the unit for electrical potential difference. Ampere is the unit for electrical current.

Quality & Fidelity Assurance: Every question on BeambePrep is rigorously curated against the official PMDC syllabus with zero filler, zero out-of-syllabus content, and zero typos. When an authentic past paper originally contained a historical mistake or ambiguity from the examining board (such as UHS or NUMS), BeambePrep faithfully reflects the original paper while detailing the nuance and scientific consensus in the autopsy above.
