Chapter 26: Q. 12 (page 737)

Rank in order, from largest to smallest, the potential differences (鈭�VC)1to(鈭�VC)4of the four capacitors in Figure Q26.12. Explain.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The potential differences are :(鈭�Vc)3>(鈭�Vc)4=(鈭�Vc)1>(鈭�Vc)2

Step by step solution

01

: Given information and formula used   

Given Figure :

Formula used :

鈭�Vc=QC

02

Calculating the potential differences 

Calculating each capacitor's 鈭�Vc=QC

鈬�(鈭�Vc)1=QC,(鈭�Vc)2=0.5(鈭�Vc)1

(鈭�Vc)3=2(鈭�Vc)1,(鈭�Vc)4=(鈭�Vc)1

So,(鈭�Vc)3>(鈭�Vc)4=(鈭�Vc)1>(鈭�Vc)2
