Capacitors C1, C2 and C3 have voltage drops 2V, 3V and 5V respectively. Calculate the total voltage in the circuit.(a) 10V(b) 2V(c) 5V(d) 0VThe question was posed to me in unit test.My doubt stems from Distribution of Voltage Across Capacitors in Series topic in section Capacitance and Capacitors of Basic Electrical Engineering

Answer»

Right option is (a) 10V

The best I can EXPLAIN: When CAPACITORS are connected in series:

Vtotal=V12+V2+V3 = 2+3+5 = 10V.
