whenever I unplug my computer so it is running on battery the power meter goes down to 60% after 10 seconds, is anyone else having this problem?

What laptop do you have?

Also, on the another hand, it could likely be because your battery can't hold 100% capacity anymore, but I'm not really sure.

That is most likely a problem internally with your own laptop.
Try running another distro on it like an earlier live boot of Ubuntu or perhaps another OS all together and see if the problem persists.
If that is the case, then you may have to get a new battery. If however you're not getting the same issues your best bet is to not ask here, but rather on the Ubuntu Forums there they will be happy to help you out (provided you post in the right section).

I hope you get everything fixed.
