Question

In (Figure 1), C_1 = 6.00 mu F, C_2 = 3.00 mu F, and C_3 = 5.00 mu F. The capacitor network is connected to an applied potential V_ab. After the charges on the capacitors have reached their final values, the charge on C_2 is 30.0 mu c. What is the charge on capacitor C_1 ? Express your answer with the appropriate units. Q_1 = What is the charge on capacitor C_3 ? Express your answer with the appropriate units. Q_3 = What is the applied voltage V_ab ? Express your answer with the appropriate units. V_ab =

Explanation / Answer

a) Here C1 and C2 are in parallel with each other,then potential drop across C1 and C2 is same


V1 = V2

Q1/C1 = Q2/C2

Q1/(6*10^-6) = (30*10^-6)/(3*10^-6)


Q1 = 60 uC

B) charges on C3 = Q1+Q2 = 30 + 60 = 90 uC

C) Vab = V1+V3

Vab = (Q1/C1)+(Q3/C3) = (60/6)+(90/5) = 28 V
