The following figure shows a 9 V battery and 3 uncharged capacitors of capacitances 
. The switch is thrown to the right side until capacitor C 1 is fully charged, then the switch is thrown fo the left. The final charge on capacitor C 2 is
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Charge on C 1 , when switch is thrown to right side is given as
As switch is thrown to left side, the total charge should conserve and,
Voltage across C 1 = Voltage across combination of C 2 and C 3
