Combination of Capacitors

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

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Series of three equal capacitors: Ceq=C3C_{eq} = \frac{C}{3}.
  2. The voltage divides equally, so each can take VV and the combination can take 3V3V.
  3. So the answer is (b) C3,3V\frac{C}{3}, 3V.
