Combination of Capacitors

Three capacitors each of capacitance ' C ' and breakdown voltage ' $V$ ' are connected in series. The capacitance and breakdown voltage of the series combination will be respectively

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

Series of three equal capacitors: $C_{eq} = \frac{C}{3}$ .
Equal charge, so each gets one third of the applied voltage; each can take $V$ , so the combination can take $3V$ .
So the answer is (d) $\frac{C}{3}, 3V$ .
