Three capacitors C1, C2 and C3 are connected to a 6 V battery, as shown in figure. The charge on the capacitor C1 is: |
12 µC 24 µC 48 µC 60 µC |
24 µC |
The correct answer is Option (2) → 24 µC $R_{23}=R_2+R_3$ [In series] $R_{23}=4+4=8µF$ Now, $\frac{1}{C_{eq}}=\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{8}$ [In parallel] $⇒C_{eq}=4µF$ Charge (Q) = CV $=4×6=24µC$ and, Charge will be same in both the capacitor. $∴C_1=24µC$ |
