Correct answer

C. What are the possible reasons for the charge on sol particles, as mentioned in the paragraph?

Step-by-step solution

In the given circuit, charge Q _ 2 on the 2 capacitor changes as C is varied from 1μ F to 3 . Q _ 2 as a function of

∵1\muF and 2\muF∵ 1\muF \text{ and } 2\muF are in parallel.

In the given circuit, charge Q _ 2 on the 2 capacitor changes as C is varied from 1μ F to 3 . Q _ 2 as a function of

∴∴ The equivalent capacitance of the series combination is, Ceq{C}_{eq} is=3CC+3= \dfrac{3C}{C + 3}. So, the total charge supplied by the battery is,
⇒Q=CeqE=3CEC+3\text{⇒}\text{Q} = {C}_{eq}E = \dfrac{3CE}{C + 3}.∴∴ The potential difference across the parallel combination of 1\muF1\muF and 2\muF2\muF is, ∆V=Q3=CEC+3∆ V = \dfrac{Q}{3} = \dfrac{CE}{C + 3}. So charge on 2\muF2\muF capacitor is, Q2=C2∆V=2CEC+3{Q}_{2} = {C}_{2} ∆ V = \dfrac{2CE}{C + 3}⇒Q22E=CC+3⇒Q22E=C+3−3C+3⇒ \dfrac{{Q}_{2}}{2E} = \dfrac{C}{C + 3} ⇒ \dfrac{{Q}_{2}}{2E} = \dfrac{C + 3 - 3}{C + 3}

⇒Q22E=1−3C+3⇒ \dfrac{{Q}_{2}}{2E} = 1 - \dfrac{3}{C + 3}→ So the graph is a hyperbola. With downward curve line. i.e.

In the given circuit, charge Q _ 2 on the 2 capacitor changes as C is varied from 1μ F to 3 . Q _ 2 as a function of
