Question
A 2 uF and a 1 uF capacitor are connected in series and charged from a battery, storing charges P and Q respectively. When disconnected and charged separately from the same battery, they have charges R and S. Then:
Correct Answer
Option A is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
In series both carry the same charge, so P=Q. Series C = 2/3 uF, P=Q=(2/3)V. Charged separately, R=2V, S=1V. Ranking: R > S > Q=P.
Hint
In series both carry the same charge, so P=Q.
