In this diagram, the PD between A and B is 60 ~V , The PD across 6 F capacitor is
Options
- A4 ~V
- B10 ~V
- C5 ~V
- D20 ~V
Correct answer
B. 10 ~V
Step-by-step solution
Let us first calculate equivalent capacitance between A and B . C _ e =1 F (In series combination) Charge on the combination, q = CV =1 60=60 C As 6 F capacitor is in series with all other capacitors, hence, charge on 6 F capacitance is also 60 C , Potential difference across 6 F capacitor V ₁= q C ₁ = 60 6 =10 ~V
