The charge on capacitor of capacitance 15 μ F in the figure given below is

The charge on capacitor of capacitance 15μF in the figure given below is

  1. 60 μC
  2. 130 μC
  3. 260 μC
  4. 585 μC

Solution

As we know, Q=CV

Here all capacitors are connected in series.

Thus, equivalent capacitance is Ceq=110+115+120-1 =6+4+360-1=6013 μF

Therefore, charge Q=6013×13=60 μC.

As the capacitors are connected in series, charge on each capacitor wil be same.
