Question

Problem 45

Answer 1

Given information

There are three capacitors. From those three   and   connected in series and this series circuit is parallel to the capacitor  . A voltage source of 10V is present in the circuit. It is required to find the voltage across each capacitor.

 

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

The relationship between the voltage(V) across a capacitor of capacitance C and charge q is

  

In this problem, and   are in series. If the equivalent capacitance of this two capacitor is    then,

   

Here given,  

Therefore, 

   

Now,  and  (1.00µF) are in parallel. Therefore, the equivalent capacitance,

   

Therefore, total charge of the circuit is,
