Question
Three capacitors
are connected as shown in the figure to a battery of
volt. If the capacitor
breaks down electrically the change in total charge on the combination of capacitors is

The correct answer is: 
Since,
are parallel to their equivalent capacitance will be
. Now,
are in series, so the net equivalent capacitances of circuit.



Since,
is the voltage of the battery, so charge on this system


If the capacitor
breaks down then total equivalent capacitance

New charge stored


Change in total charge
