Two capacitors of unknown capacitances and are connected first in series and then in parallel across a battery of . If the energy stored in the two combinations is and respectively, determine the valueof and . Also calculate the charge on each capacitor in parallel combination.
Solution:
Determination of and
Determination of Charge on each capacitor in parallel combination
Energy stored in a capacitor
In series combination
......(i)
In Parallel combination
.......(ii)
On simplifying (i) & (ii)
.......(iii)
From (ii) and (iii) we have
Charges on capacitor and in Parallel combination
[Note: If the student writes the relations/ equations
and
But is unable to calculate and , award him/her full 2 marks.
Also if the student just writes
Award him/her one mark for this part of the question.]
