NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12
A 600 pF capacitor is charged by a 200 V supply and then disconnected. It is connected to another uncharged 600 pF capacitor. What is the final potential difference across each capacitor?
A
50 V
B
100 V
C
150 V
D
200 V
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
When two identical capacitors are connected, the charge is shared equally, halving the voltage across each. Initial charge = 600 pF * 200 V. Final charge on each = (initial charge) / 2. V = Q/C = 100 V.
