For section `AB` of a circuit shown in , `C_(1)=1 muF, C_(2)=2 muF, E=10 V`, and the potential difference `V_(A)-V_(B)=-10 V`. Charge on capacitor `C_(1)` is
.

A

`0muC`

B

`20//3 muC`

C

`40//3 muC`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`V_(A)-q/C_(1)-Eq/C_(2)=V_(B)` or `V_(A)-V_(B)-E=Q(1/C_(1)+1/C_(2))`
or `q=-(40)/3 muC` .
