Two capacitors \(C_1 = 2~\mu\text{F}\) and \(C_2 = 6~\mu \text{F}\) in series, are connected in parallel to a third capacitor \(C_3= 4~\mu\text{F}\). This arrangement is then connected to a battery of \(\text{emf}= 2~\text{V}\), as shown in the figure. How much energy is lost by the battery in charging the capacitors?

4. \(\frac{16}{3}\times 10^{-6}~\text{J}\)

A parallel plate capacitor has capacitance \(C\). If it is equally filled with parallel layers of materials of dielectric constants \(K_1\) and \(K_2\), its capacity becomes \(C_1\). The ratio of \(C_1\) to \(C\) is:

The equivalent capacitance in the circuit between A and B will be

In the given figure the capacitors C₁, C₃, C₄, C₅ have a capacitance 4 μF each and if the capacitor C₂ has a capacitance 10 μF, then effective capacitance between A and B will be 

(1) 2 μF

(2) 4 μF

Two identical capacitors, have the same capacitance C. One of them is charged to potential V₁ and the other to V₂. The negative ends of the capacitors are connected together. When the positive ends are also connected, the decrease in energy of the combined system is

Three capacitors each of capacity 4 μF are to be connected in such a way that the effective capacitance is 6 μF. This can be done by 

(1) Connecting them in parallel

(3) Connecting two in parallel and one in series

(4) Connecting all of them in series

Three capacitors of capacitance 3 μF are connected in a circuit. Then their maximum and minimum capacitances will be

(4) 3 μF, 2 μF

A capacitor of capacity C₁ is charged upto V volt and then connected to an uncharged capacitor of capacity C₂. Then final potential difference across each will be
