Question

A capacitor of capacitance C₁ =1.0µF withstands the maximum voltage V₁ =6.0 kV while a capacitor of capacitance C₂ = 2.0µF withstands maximum voltage V₂ = 4.0 kV. What voltage will the system of these two capacitors withstand, if they are connected in series?

Answer 1

For V_{max.(inseries)} Q = same for both the capacitance (in series )
