Electrostatics Question 537
Question: The capacitor of capacitance $ 4\mu F $ and$ 6\mu F $ are connected in series. A potential difference of $ 500\ volts $ is applied to the outer plates of the two capacitor system. The potential difference across the plates of capacitor of $ 4\mu F $ capacitance is
Options:
A) $ 500\ volts $
B) $ 300\ volts $
C) $ 200\ volts $
D) $ 250\ volts $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
Potential difference across 4mF capacitor $ V=( \frac{6}{4+6} )\times 500=300volt $
