Figure shown in five capacitors connected across a 12V power supply. What is the potential drop across the \[2\mu f\] capicitor?

A)  2V                  

B)  4V

C)  8V                  

D)  10V

Correct Answer: B

Solution :

\[1\,\mu F,\] \[2\,\mu F\] and \[3\,\mu F\] are in parallel and their equivalent capacitance is \[6\,\mu F\] Hence, each \[6\,\mu F\] capacitor has potential difference of 4V.
