Physics · Electrostatic Potential
हिन्दीGiven below are two statements: Statement I: In a series combination of capacitors, the reciprocal of the equivalent capacitance equals the sum of the reciprocals of the individual capacitances. Statement II: In a parallel combination of capacitors, the potential difference across each individual capacitor is identical. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Correct answer · Option 1
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
Explanation
For series combination \( \frac{1}{C} = \sum \frac{1}{C_i} \) and in parallel combination \( V \) is the same across each capacitor. Both statements are correct.
