Physics Question on Electrostatics

The charge on capacitor of capacitance 15 μF in the figure given below is
The charge on capacitor of capacitance

A

60 μC

B

130 μC

C

260 μC

D

585 μC

Answer

60 μC

Explanation

Solution

CeqC_{eq}_ = _12026\frac{120}{26}μF
QflownQ_{flown} or _Q = _13×12026\frac{13×120}{26}μC = 60 μC
⇒ Charge on 15 μF capacitor = 60 μC
As all the capacitors are in series.

The correct answer is (A): 60 μC
