In the circuit shown in figure, initially the terminals A and P are connected together to change `4muF` capacitor. Then battery is disconnected and the terminals P and B are connected together. Then the ratio of final charge and initial charge on `4muF` capacitor is:

A

`1//3`

B

`3//4`

C

`4//5`

D

`5//6`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Let charge on `4 muF` capacitor when switch in position A is Q.
Charge on `4muF` capacitor after switch is shifted to position B.
`Q' = 4/(4+2)Q = (2Q)/3`
ratio `=(2Q//3)/(Q) = 2/3`
