Question

Two capacitors, C 1 and C 2, are connected in series across a source of potential difference. With the potential source still connected, a dielectric is now inserted between the plates of capacitor C 1. What happens to the charge on capacitor C 2

Answer 1

Q2 will increase

Step-by-step explanation:

The charge increases because a dielectric increases capacitance by a factor of K fromthe relation

C= KEoA/d

And since C1=C2

And Capacitance varies directly to charge in Q= CV

Then Q2 will increase
