QAIPMT-2009-Ph-2140: NEET 2009 Physics - Class 12 AIPMT-2009-Ph-2140 Solution: Three capacitors each of capacitance C and of breakdown voltage …

Three capacitors each of capacitance C and of breakdown voltage V are joined in series. The capacitance and breakdown voltages of the combination will be

Multiple Choice Options

A $3C,\ \frac{V}{3}$
B $\frac{C}{3},\ 3V$
C $3C,\ 3V$
D $\frac{C}{3},\ \frac{V}{3}$

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

In series combination of capacitors V eff = V + V + V = 3V 1 C e f f = 1 C + 1 C + 1 C _ C e f f = C 3 Thus, the capacitance and breakdown voltage of the combination will be C 3 and 3V.
