Two capacitors of capacity 4 F and 6 F are connected in series to a 500 ~V battery. The potential difference across 4 F capacitor is
Options
- A200 ~V
- B300 ~V
- C400 ~V
- D500 ~V
Correct answer
B. 300 ~V
Step-by-step solution
aligned & C ₁=4 F and C ₂=6 F & C _ eq = C ₁ C ₂ C ₁+ C ₂ & = 4 6 4+6 =2.4 F & Q = C _ eq V & =2.4 10⁻⁶ 500=1200 10⁻⁶ C aligned The potential difference across 4 F capacitor is aligned & V = Q C ₁ & = 1200 10⁻⁶ 4 10⁻⁶ =300 ~V aligned
