A capacitor of 
and charged to 500 V is connected in parallel with another capacitor of 
. charged to 200 V. The common potential will be
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
The common potential on the capacitor is the ratio of net charge to the net capacitance.
Here, 
,
When a capacitor is charged by battery, then 
of energy is liberated or wastage) as heat always.
