Four capacitors are connected as shown in figuere to a `30 V` battery. The potential difference between points `a` and `b`

A

`5V`

B

`9V`

C

`10V`

D

`13V`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`V_1/V_(1.5)=1.5/1`
`:. V_1=(1.5)/(1.5+1)(30)`
`=18V`
`V_(2.5)/(V_(0.5))=0.5/2.5=1/5`
`:. V_(2.5)=(1/(1+5))(30)`
`=5V`
Now, `|V_(ab)=V_1-V_(2.5)`
`=13V`
