A) 40
B) 32
C) 8
D) 2
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Suppose \[C=\text{ 8}\mu F,C'=\text{ 16}\mu F\] and V = 250 V, V' = 1000V Suppose m rows of given capacitors are connected in parallel and each row contains n capacitors then potential difference across each capacitor \[V=\frac{V'}{n}\] and equivalent capacitance of network \[C'=\frac{mC}{n}\] on putting the values we get n = 4 and m = 8 \ Total capacitors = n ´ m = 4 ´ 8 = 32 Short Trick : For such type of problems number of capacitors = \[\frac{C'}{C}\times {{\left( \frac{V'}{V} \right)}^{2}}=\frac{16}{8}{{\left( \frac{1000}{250} \right)}^{2}}=32\]You need to login to perform this action.
