What are the charge on and the potential difference across each capacitor in Figure P30.64, in which V = 24 V and C1 = 11
C1 and C2 are in parallel there net capacaitance of C1
and C2 is C1+C2 C12= 11+12 = 23 uF...
C12 and C3 are in series..
Cnet = C12*C3/(C12+C3) = 23*2/(23+2) = 1.84 uF....
net charge q = Cnet*V = 1.84uF*24 = 44.16
uC..
for capacitor C3
therefore charge on C3 = q = 44.16 uC..
potential difference V3 = q/C3 = 44.16uC/2uF = 22.08 V
for capacitor C1 and C2
potential difference V1= V2 = 24-22.08 = 1.92 V
on C1 charge q1 = C1*V1 = 11*10^-6*1.92 = 21.12 uC...
on C2 charge q2 = C2*V2 = 12*10^-6*1.92 = 23.04 uC
