Type: MCQ-conceptual-Easy-Class 12
Which of the following statements regarding potential difference is correct?
A
The potential difference is the same across capacitors in series.
B
The total potential drop across a series combination is the sum of individual potential drops.
C
A potential difference can exist even without a charge flow.
D
The potential difference is only relevant for parallel circuits.
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
The total potential drop V across the combination of capacitors in series is indeed the sum of the potential drops across each capacitor, as indicated by the formula V = V1 + V2.
