Electrostatics Question 546

Question: The capacities of two conductors are C1 and C2 and their respective potentials are V1 andV2 . If they are connected by a thin wire, then the loss of energy will be given by [MP PMT 1986]

Options:

A) C1C2(V1+V2)2(C1+C2)

B) C1C2(V1V2)2(C1+C2)

C) C1C2(V1V2)22(C1+C2)

D) (C1+C2)(V1V2)C1C2

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

Initial energy

Ui=12C1V12+12C2V22 ,

Final energy Uf=12(C1+C2)V2 (where V=C1V1+C2V2C1C2)

Hence energy loss ΔU=UiUf=C1C22(C1+C2)(V1V2)2
