STANDARD Physics Capacitance MCQ Question
Figure shows charge (q) versus voltage (V) graph for series and parallel combination of two given capacitors. The capacitances are
50 μF and 30 μF
20 μF and 30 μF
60 μF and 40 μF
40 μF and 10 μF
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The slope of the q-V graph gives the capacitance. For the series combination, the slope is smaller, indicating a lower capacitance. The parallel combination has a larger slope, indicating a higher capacitance. The correct pair is 40 μF and 10 μF.
