JEE Main & Advanced Physics Electrostatics & Capacitance Question Bank Grouping of Capacitors

  • question_answer
    A capacitor having capacitance  \[C\] is charged to a voltage \[V\]. It is then removed and connected in parallel with another identical capacitor which is uncharged. The new charge on each capacitor is now                              [MP PET 1990]

    A)            CV 

    B)            CV / 2

    C)                    2 CV                                 

    D)            CV / 4

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               Charge flows to second capacitor until the potential is same i.e. V/2. So new charge = CV/ 2
