Electrostatics Question 601

Question: Two capacitors of 10μF and 20μF are connected in series with a 30V battery. The charge on the capacitors will be, respectively [AMU (Engg.) 2001]

Options:

A) 100μC , 200μC

B) 200μC , 100 μC

C) 100μC , 100μC

D) 200μC , 200μC

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

In series combination of capacitor charge on each capacitor is same

Q1=Q2=Q=CeqV

CeqV=(10×2010+20)×30

=20030×30=200μC
