Physics · Electrostatics
Two identical capacitors of capacitance C are charged to potentials V1 and V2 respectively. Their negative plates are connected together, and then their positive plates are also connected. The loss of energy in this process is given by:
- 114 C(V1 + V2)2
- 214 C(V1 - V2)2✓
- 314 C(V12 + V22)
- 414 C(V12 - V22)
Correct answer
14 C(V1 - V2)2
