AIPMT PRELIMS 2002 Physics Capacitors MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12
A capacitor of capacity C₁ charged upto V volt and then connected to an uncharged capacitor C₂. Then final P.D. across each will be :-
A
C₂V / (C₁ + C₂)
B
C₁V / (C₁ + C₂)
C
(¹⁺ C₂/C₁)V
D
(¹⁻ C₂/C₁)V
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
When capacitors are connected, charge is conserved. The final voltage is given by V_final = (C₁V) / (C₁ + C₂).
