Question

In the circuit shown in the figure, there are two parallel plate capacitors each of capacitance C. The switch S₁ is pressed first to fully charge the capacitor C₁ and the released. The switch S₂ is then pressed to charge the capacitor C₂. After some time, S₂ is released and then is S₃ pressed. After some time,

When S 1 is closed, charge on C 1 = 2 V 0 C After S 2 is closed, half of the change will move to C 2 ∴ charge on C 1 = 1 2 2 V 0 C when S 2 is closed, charge on C 2 = V 0 C but with reversed polarity, ∴ Charge on upper plate = - V 0 C
