Two capacitors of capacitances `C_(1)` and `C_(2)` are connected in parallel across a battery. If` Q_(1)` and `Q_(2)` respectively be the charges on the capacitors, then `(Q_(1))/(Q_(2))` will be equal to

Options

A. `(C_(2))/(C_(1))`
B. `(C_(1))/(C_(2))`
C. `(C_(1)^(2))/(C_(2)^(2))`
D. `(C_(2)^(2))/(C_(1)^(2))`

Answer

B

Explanation

In parallel, potential is same say V
`(Q_(1))/(Q_(2))=(C_(1)V)/(C_(2)V)=(C_(1))/(C_(2))`
