Two capacitors of capacitances and are charged to potential differences and as shown in the figure. If terminals and are connected together and terminals and are connected with the positive and negative ends of the battery with emf , respectively, then find the final charges on both the capacitors.


Important Questions on Capacitor and Capacitance
Two capacitors , and are connected with two batteries of emf and . The circuit components are connected with a switch as shown in figure. Initially the switch is open and the capacitors are charged. Find the heat produced when switch is closed.

The figure shows a capacitive circuit with a switch .
(a) What is the potential difference between and when the switch is open?
(b) What charge flows through the switch when it is closed?

Two large parallel metal plates, each having area , are oriented horizontally and separated by a distance . A grounded conducting wire joins them, and initially each plate carries no charge. Now a third identical plate carrying charge is inserted between the two plates, parallel to them and located a distance from the upper plate, as shown in the figure. What induced charge appears on each of the two original plates?

Four parallel large plates separated by equal distance are arranged as shown in the figure. The area of the plates is . Find the potential difference between plates and , if plate is given a charge .
