In the circuit shown the battery of 'V' volts has no internal resistance . All three condensers are equal in capacity. Find the condenser that carries more charge ?
.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The equivalent circuit to the given circuit is as shown

In series combination of capacitors, charge q flows through each capacitor.
Then `q_(1)=q=C_(1)V_(1),q_(2)=q=C_(2)V_(2)`,
`therefore q_(1)=q_(2)=q_(3)`
Hence three capacitors , `C_1,C_2` and `C_3` carry the same charge.
