5. Two capacitors C1 =2 μF and C2 =4μF are connected in parallel and then connected in
series to a capacitor C3 =3 μF. The battery of e.m.f 12 V is connected across the
combination of capacitors. What is the charge on C1? [8 C]
6. A camera flash unit stores energy in a 150 F capacitor at 200 𝑉. How much electric
energy can be stored? [3 J]
7. An energy of 9.0x10-3 Joules is stored by a capacitor that has a potential difference of
85 Volts across it. Determine the capacitance of the capacitor. [2.5 microfarads]
8. A 4 𝜇F capacitor is charged by 200 V supply. The supply is then disconnected and the
charged capacitor is connected to another uncharged 2 𝜇F capacitor. How much
electrostatic energy of the first capacitor is lost in the process of attaining the steady
situation? [𝟐. 𝟔𝟕 × 𝟏𝟎−𝟐 𝑱]
