Question

10. 3 capacitors with capacitances 5µF, 6µF and 7µF are arranged in parallel combination with a battery
of 5V, voltage across each capacitor is

Answer 1

Answer:

Voltage = 5

Explanation:

All 3 capacitors are in parallel. Therefore the voltage on each capacitor will be same.

The battery is of 5 v therefore the voltage on each capacitor will be 5v

Answer 2

Answer:

The voltage across each capacitor is 5V.

Explanation:

As given,

three capacitors are arranged in parallel combinations.

let's say,

three capacitors are as follows;

C₁ = 5μF

C₂ =6μF  

C₃ =7μF, which are connected to a battery of 5V.

• With parallelly connected capacitors, capacitance increases because this will add their capacitance with no change in voltage. So the voltage rating will remain unchanged.

such a parallel circuit is the most convenient method to boost the total electric charge storage.

thus, each capacitor will possess the same voltage i.e. 5V.
