Find the charge supplied by the battery in the arrangement shown in the figure.
Given V= 10V
C1=5
C2=6
Formula used :
Charge supplied by the battery is
Where
C is the capacitance of the capacitor
V is the voltage across the potential difference
Q is the Charge on the capacitor
First, we have to calculate the capacitance C .To do this short circuit the voltage source and open circuit the current source. We don’t have any current sources over here. So short circuit the Voltage source. Then two capacitors will come to parallel. In parallel connection of the capacitor we add the capacitor values.
Equalent Capacitance is
Charge Q can be calculated as
Charge supplied by the battery is
