Q9 · Physics
Three identical capacitors P, Q and S, each of the capacitance C, are connected to a battery of voltage V, as shown in the figure. If the energy stored in the capacitor P and total energy stored in the system are and , respectively, then the ratio is :
The figure, described in words
Circuit: P and Q in series, that branch in parallel with S, the combination across battery V.
