Energy is stored in a form of electrostatic field between plates of capacitor. This energy can be expressed in the form of work done by the battery.

Energy stored in a charged capacitor is not in the form of gravitational energy. Gravitational energy is associated with the gravitational field and the position of objects relative to each other in a gravitational field, whereas a capacitor stores energy in an electric field.

This option is partially correct. The energy stored in a charged capacitor is indeed related to electrical potential. When a capacitor is charged, work is done to move charges from one plate to the other, creating a potential difference between the plates. This potential difference, also known as voltage, represents stored electrical energy in the capacitor.

Energy stored in a charged capacitor is not in the form of a magnetic field. Capacitors primarily store energy in an electric field between their plates. While there might be small induced magnetic fields around the conductors carrying current during charging and discharging processes, the predominant energy storage mechanism in a capacitor is electric, not

This option is somewhat related to option b). The energy stored in a capacitor is indeed related to potential, specifically electrical potential or voltage. The potential difference between the plates of the capacitor, caused by the accumulation of charges on the plates, represents the stored energy.
