A) \[6\times {{10}^{-6}}C\]
B) \[12\times {{10}^{-6}}C\]
C) \[24\times {{10}^{-6}}C\]
D) \[36\times {{10}^{-6}}C\]
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
As the capacitors\[4\mu F\]and\[2\mu F\]up are connected in parallel and are in series with \[6\mu F\]capacitor, their equivalent capacitance is \[\frac{(2+4)\times 6}{2+4+6}=3\mu F\] Charge in the circuit, \[Q=3\mu F\times 12V=36\mu C\] Since, the capacitors\[4\mu F\]and\[2\mu F\]are connected in parallel, therefore potential difference across them is same. \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{{{Q}_{1}}}{{{Q}_{2}}}=\frac{{{C}_{1}}}{{{C}_{2}}}=\frac{4}{2}\]or\[{{Q}_{1}}=2{{Q}_{2}}\] Also, \[Q={{Q}_{1}}+{{Q}_{2}}\] \[\therefore \]\[36\mu C=2{{Q}_{2}}+{{Q}_{2}}\]or\[{{Q}_{2}}=\frac{36\mu C}{3}=12\mu C\] \[{{Q}_{1}}=Q-{{Q}_{2}}=36\mu C-12\mu C\] \[=24\mu C=24\times {{10}^{-6}}C\]You need to login to perform this action.
