Questions  

Two identical metal plates are given positive charges Q1 and Q2 (<Q1) respectively. If they are now brought close together to form a parallel plate capacitor with capacitance C, the potential difference between them is
 

a
Q1+Q2(2C)
b
Q1+Q2C
c
Q1−Q2C
d
Q1−Q2(2C)

detailed solution

Correct option is D

The charges on plates are shown in fig. Here q=Q1−Q22 Now C=qV  or  V=qC∴Potential difference between the platesV=qC=Q1−Q22C
