Question 17 of 180

A parallel plate capacitor has $1\mu F$ capacitance. One of its two plates is given $+2\mu C$ charge and the other plate, $+4\mu C$ charge. The potential difference developed across the capacitor is:

A$1V$B$2V$C$3V$D$5V$

Show answer and solution▾

Answer: (A) $1V$

Charge inside capacitor $=1\mu C$
$V=\dfrac{Q}{C}=\dfrac{1\times {10}^{-6}}{1\times {10}^{-6}}=1$ volt
