    The total energy stored in the condenser system shown in the figure will be

    A)  \[2\mu J\]                                         

    B)  \[4\mu J\]

    C)  \[8\mu J\]                                         

    D)  \[16\mu J\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[6\mu F\] and \[3\,\mu F\] capacitors are in series \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{1}{{{C}_{1}}}=\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{3}\] \[{{C}_{1}}\] is parallel to \[2\mu F\] capacitor \[\therefore \]  \[{{C}_{eq}}=2+2=4\mu F\] Total energy, \[U=\frac{1}{2}C{{V}^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}\times 4\times {{(2)}^{2}}=8\mu J\]
