When two capacitors are joined in series...

When two capacitors are joined in series the resultance capacity is `2.4 muF` and when the same two are joined in parallel the resultant capacity is `10 mu F`. Their individual capacities are.

A

`7muF, 3muF`

B

`1mu F, 9muF`

C

`6mu F, 4mu F`

D

`8mu F, 2mu F`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`C_(S) = (C_(1) C_(2))/(C_(1) + C_(2)) , C_(1) + C_(2) = C_(P)`
