Let Q denote charge, V denote potential difference and U denote stored energy.Of these quantities, capacitors in series must have the same:
A)Q only
B)V only
C)U only
D)Q and U only
E)V and U only

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a series circuit, capacitors have the same charge (Q) because the charge that accumulates on one plate of a capacitor must be equal to the charge that accumulates on the adjacent plate of the next capacitor in the series, due to the conservation of charge.

Let Q Denote Charge, V Denote Potential Difference and U
