A capacitor C1 of capacitance 5 μ F  is charged to a potential of 30V using a battery. The battery is then removed and the charged capacitor is connected to an uncharged capacitor C2 of capacitance 1 0 μ F as shown in figure. When the switch is closed charge flows between the capacitors. At equilibrium, the charge on the capacitor C2 is__________   μ C .

Q = C1v                                                                                                                    

= 5 * 30

Q = 150  μ c

Now it is connected to an unchanged capacitor C2

Let change on C1 ® q1

& 4 C2 ® q2

Apply kvL

q 1 q q 2 C 2 = 0

Þ q2 = 2q1          – (1)
