The charge on `3 muF` capacitor shown in the figure is

A

`2muC`

B

`10 muC`

C

`6 muC`

D

`8mu C`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Since all the capacitors are connected in series, `therefore ` equivalent capacitance is
`(1)/(C_(eq)) = (1)/(2) +(1)/(3) + (1)/(6) = 1 " " therefore C_(eq) = 1 muF`
Charge on each capacitor is same `" "(because V = 10V)`
`q = C_(eq) V = 1 xx 10 = 10 muC `
