NCERT Exercise 2.7 - Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance

Question: Three capacitors of capacitances 2 pF, 3 pF and 4 pF are connected in parallel. (a) What is the total capacitance of the combination? (b) Determine the charge on each capacitor if the combination is connected to a 100 V supply.

Answer: (a) Total capacitance = **9 pF**. (b) Charges: **2 × 10⁻¹⁰ C**, **3 × 10⁻¹⁰ C**, **4 × 10⁻¹⁰ C** on the 2 pF, 3 pF and 4 pF capacitors respectively.
