Two capacitors of capacitances \( C_1 \) and \( C_2 \) are connected in parallel.
If two-third of the total charge is shared by capacitor \( C_1 \), the ratio of \( C_1 \) to \( C_2 \) is given by:
- A 1 : 2
- B 2 : 1
- C 2 : 3
- D 3 : 2
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 2 : 1
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(Q_1 = \frac{2}{3} Q_{total}\) \(Q_1 = \frac{2}{3} (Q_1 + Q_2)\) \(3Q_1 = 2Q_1 + 2Q_2\) \(Q_1 = 2Q_2\) \(C_1 V = 2 C_2 V\) \(C_1 = 2C_2\) \(C_1 : C_2 = 2:1\)
