Question

Two capacitors C1 and C2 are connected in series to a 12 V battery as shown in the sketch. Each has a dielectric filling the volume between the plates, with K1 = 4.0 and K2 = 2.0. Without a dielectric between the plates the capacitors C1 and C2 each have capacitance C0 = 2.0 X 10-6 F. What is the voltage across C1?

Name: two capacitors c1 and c2 are connected in series to a 12 v battery as shown in the sketch each has a dielectric filling the volume between the plates with k1 40 and k2 20 without a dielectri 85034
