Textbook Question
Chapter 25, Problem 72P
A potential difference of 300 V is applied to a series connection of two capacitors of capacitances C1 = 2.00 F and C2 = 8.00μF. What are (a) charge q1 and (b) potential difference V1 on capacitor 1 and (c) q2 and (d) V2 on capacitor 2? The charged capacitors are then disconnected from each other and from the battery. Then the capacitors are reconnected with plates of the same signs wired together (the battery is not used). What now are (e) q1, (f) V1, (g) q2, and (h) V2? Suppose, instead, the capacitors charged in part (a) are reconnected with plates of opposite signs wired together.What noware (i) q1,(j) V1,(k) q2, and (I) V2?
