  • question_answer
    Figure shows charge (q) versus voltage (V) graph for series and parallel combination of two given capacitors. The capacitances are : [JEE Main 10-4-2019 Morning]

    A) \[50\mu F\text{ }and\text{ }30\mu F\]

    B) \[20\mu F\text{ }and\text{ }30\mu F\]

    C) \[60\mu F\text{ }and\text{ }40\mu F\]

    D) \[40\mu F\text{ }and\text{ }10\mu F\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] As q = CV
    Hence slope of graph will give capacitance.
    Slope will be more in parallel combination.
    Hence capacitance in parallel should be \[50\mu F\]& in series combination must be \[8\mu F\].
    Only in option \[40\mu F\text{ }\And \text{ }10\mu F\]
    \[{{C}_{parallel}}=40+10=50\mu F\]
    \[{{C}_{series}}=\frac{40\times 10}{40+10}=8\mu F\]
