The charge accumulated on the capacitor connected in the following circuit is _______ (Given C=150) Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.

Answer: 400. Take the bottom node at 0 V and top at 10 V. Left arm: VA = 10 - 10·1/1+2 = 20/3 V. Right arm: VB = 10 - 10·6/6+4 = 4 V. VAB = 20/3 - 4 = 8/3 V Q = 150×8/3 = 400

The charge accumulated on the capacitor connected in the following circuit is _______ $\mu\text{C}$ (Given $C=150\ \mu\text{F})$

Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.

Show answer and solution

Answer: 400

Take the bottom node at 0 V and top at 10 V. Left arm: $V_A = 10 - 10\cdot\dfrac{1}{1+2} = \dfrac{20}{3}\text{ V}$ .
Right arm: $V_B = 10 - 10\cdot\dfrac{6}{6+4} = 4\text{ V}$ .
$V_{AB} = \dfrac{20}{3} - 4 = \dfrac{8}{3}\text{ V}$
$Q = 150\times\dfrac{8}{3} = 400\ \mu\text{C}$
