Questions
The capacities of two conductors are and and their respective potentials are and . If they are connected by a thin wire, then the loss of energy will be given by
detailed solution
Correct option is C
Initial energy Ui=12C1V12+12C2V22, final energy Uf=12C1+C2V2 (Where V=C1V1+C2V2C1+C2) Hence energy loss ΔU=Ui−Uf = 12C1V12+12C2V22 - C1+C22C1V1+C2V2C1+C22 =C1C22C1+C2V1−V22Talk to our academic expert!
