When two capacitors charged to different potential are connected in parallel the statement which is not true about it is :
- A some energy is lost
- B both the capacitor acquire a common potential
- C potential lost by one is equal to potential gained by the other
- D charge lost by one is equal to charge gained by the other
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) potential lost by one is equal to potential gained by the other
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
While the charge lost by one capacitor must equal the charge gained by the other (conservation of charge), the change in potential depends on their individual capacitances ( \(\Delta V=\Delta Q\) (C). Unless the two capacitors have identical capacitance, their potential changes…
