A 100 pF capacitor is charged by a 50-volt battery. After removing it, that capacitor is then joined with another capacitor. Hence, the potential drops to 35 volts. Find the capacitance of the other.​

Answer:

Explanation: Q=CV=C1V1+C2V2

200×100=60(200+C2)

As capacitors are connected in parallel voltage across them will be same. So V1=V2

On simplification, C2=133.33 pf

So capacitors capacitance will be 133.33pfn:


kaushikdey: why did you did c1v1+c2v2
kaushikdey: ??
kaushikdey: and how did you know that capacitors are joined in parallel

I think it's the correct ans...

hope it helps :)

Attachments:

mousumi6: in the last... it has written that the potential drops to 35 volts... which means potential both capacitor drops to 35
mousumi6: thanks dear
mousumi6: :)
kaushikdey: as potential has dropped so we can say they are in parallel
mousumi6: ohh yaa dear.... :)
mousumi6: very nice question
kaushikdey: okz
mousumi6: I hv taken 30 min for this question XD
kaushikdey: ha ha
mousumi6: yaa :)
