Electrostatic potential energy stored in capacitor C3. (c) ‘n’ cells, each of emf ’e’ and internal resistance ‘r’ are joined in series to form a row. ‘m’ such rows are connected in parallel to form a battery of N = mn cells. This battery is connected to an external resistance ‘R’

(i)    What is the emf of this battery and how much is its internal resistance?

(ii)    Show that current ‘I’ flowing through the external resistance ‘R’ is given by :
straight I space equals space fraction numerator Ne over denominator mR space plus space nr end fraction


Emf = ne

Obtain and expression for equivalent capacitance C, when three capacitors having capacitance C1 , C2 and C3 are connected in series.




Due to the applied p.d V,charge supplied by the battery is Q and due to induction,charge developed on each battery is Q applied p d are v1 ,v2 and v3


V = V1 + V2 + V3                              ...(i)

Q = i1V1 = i2V2 = i3V3                    ---(ii)

In place of the above arrangement a single capacitor C equ is imagined which can withstand the applied P.D v and can store the same magnitude of charge Q.

Q =CequV                                ---(iii)

From Eq. (i) + Eq. (iii) 

Q = Cequ (V1+V2+V3)               ... (iv)

From Eq. (ii) + Eq. (iv)

straight Q over straight C subscript eq space equals space Q over C subscript 1 space plus space Q over C subscript 2 space plus space Q over C subscript 3

Q over C subscript e q u i v. end subscript space equals space 1 over C subscript 1 space plus space 1 over C subscript 2 space plus space 1 over C subscript 3
