In the given circuit (as shown in figure), each capacitor has a capacity of `3 mu F`. What will be the net charge on each capacitor ?

A

` 48 mu C`

B

`24 mu C`

C

`12 mu C`

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Net resistance between ABCD is
`R=4+1=5Omega`
`thereforeCurrent" "I=(V)/(R)=(10)/(5)=2A`
Potential difference across A and B
`1xx4=2xx4=8V` therefore Two capcitors of `3muF` each are in series
therefore Potential difference across each capacitor
`=(8)/(2)=4V`
Charge on each capacitor, `q=CV=3xx4=12muC`
