Q3. If two capacitors of capacitance C1 and C2 are connected in series, what is the equivalent capacitance (Ceq)?

Solution:

The equivalent capacitance for capacitors in series is given by Ceq = 1 / (1/C1 + 1/C2).

Q4. If the capacitance of a capacitor is doubled, what happens to the charge stored if the voltage remains constant?

Solution:

Capacitance (C) is defined as C = Q/V. If C is doubled and V remains constant, Q must also double.

Q5. If the capacitance of a capacitor is doubled while the voltage remains constant, what happens to the charge stored?

Solution:

Charge (Q) stored in a capacitor is given by Q = C * V. If C is doubled and V remains constant, Q also doubles.

Q7. What happens to the electric potential energy when a positive charge moves away from another positive charge?

Solution:

As a positive charge moves away from another positive charge, the electric potential energy decreases due to the repulsive force.
