Multiple Choice
Capacitor C1 is connected alone to a battery and charged until the magnitude of the charge on each plate is 4.0 * 10-8 C. Then it is removed from the vattery and connected to two other capacitors C2 and C3, as shown. The charge ont he positive placte of C1 is then 1.0 * 10 - 8 C. The charges on the positive plates of C2 and C3 are:
A) q2 = 3.0 *10 - -8 C and q3 = 3.0 * 10 - 8 C
B) q2 = 2.0 *10 - 8 Cand q3 = 2.0 *10 - 8 C
C) q2 = 5.0 *10 1- 8 Cand q3 = 1.0 *10 - 8 C
D) q2 = 3.0 *10 - 8 C and q3 = 1.0 *10 - 8 C
E) q2 = 1.0 * 10 - 8 Cand q3 = 3.0 *10 - 8 C
