Two capacitors of capacitances C1 and C2 are charged to potential V1 and V2 respectively and then connected in parallel calculate the common potential difference across the combination and charge on each capacitor


Dear Student,
Please refer to the solution below:

  • -1
As the capacitors are in parallel
net capacitance=C1+C2
Iniial charge is equal to final charge si that
(C1+C2)V=(C1V1+C2V2)
V=(C1V1+C2V2)/(C1+C2)
