Five identical capacitor plates are arranged such that they make four capacitors each of `2muF.` The plates are connected to a source of emf `10 V`. The charge on plate `C` is

A

`+20muC`

B

`+40muC`

C

`+60muC`

D

`+80muC`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Four capacitors are in parallel charge across each is `q=CV`. Two surfaces of plate C marks two capcitors, one with B and other with `D` and `C` is connected to positive terminal of the battery. Hence `q_C=2CV=+40muC`
