Question

A capacitor of capacity C₁ is charged upto potential V volt and then connected in parallel to an uncharged capacitor of capacity C₂. The final potential difference across each capacitor will be–

• A. $\frac{C_{2}V}{C_{1} + C_{2}}$
• B. $\frac{C_{1}V}{C_{1} + C_{2}}$
• C. $\left( 1 + \frac{C_{2}}{C_{1}} \right)$V
• D. $\left( 1–\frac{C_{2}}{C_{1}} \right)$V

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$\frac{C_{1}V}{C_{1} + C_{2}}$

Answer 2

V = = $\frac { C _ { 1 } \times V + C _ { 2 } \times 0 } { C _ { 1 } + C _ { 2 } }$
