Electrostatics Question 585

Question: The combined capacity of the parallel combination of two capacitors is four times their combined capacity when connected in series. This means that [EAMCET 1994]

Options:

A) Their capacities are equal

B) Their capacities are 1μF and 2μF

C) Their capacities are 0.5μF and 1μF

D) Their capacities are infinite

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

Cp=4Cs

therefore (C1+C2)=4C1C2(C1+C2)

therefore (C1C2)2=0

therefore C1=C2
