Two 4F capacitors are connected in series, calculate the voltage across each if the total voltage is 20V.(a) 10V(b) 5V(c) 20V(d) 0VThe question was posed to me in final exam.My query is from Distribution of Voltage Across Capacitors in Series topic in chapter Capacitance and Capacitors of Basic Electrical Engineering

Answer» RIGHT option is (a) 10V

Easiest EXPLANATION: The TWO capacitors have the same capacitance, hence the voltage gets divides EQUALLY. V across each=Total voltage/2 = 20/2 = 10V.
