A supply of 400V is connected across capacitors of 3µf and 6µf in series. Calculate the charge

QUICK ANSWER…

A

DETAILS…

The appropriate formula relating voltage, capacitance, and charge is given by:

Q = CV

Where Q = charge = ?

V = voltage across the terminals = 400V

C = capacitance of the capacitors which can be calculated as a resultant of the two series connected capacitors.

For capacitors in series,

Now for the right answer to the above question:

1. Option A is correct.
2. Option B is incorrect.
3. C is incorrect.
4. D is not the correct answer.

HELPFUL TIPS…

You may please note these/this:

• The formula relating capacitance, charge, and voltage, is given by: Q = CV.
