Capacitors and are charged as a parallel combination across a 250 V battery. The capacitors are disconnected from the battery and from each other. They are then connected positive plate to negative plate and negative plate to positive plate. What is the resulating charge on each capacitor?

Capacitors and are charged as a parallel combination across a 250 V battery. The capacitors are disconnected from the battery and from each other. They are then connected positive plate to negative plate and negative plate to positive plate. Calculate theΒ  resulting charge on each capacitor.

What happens to the charge on the capacitor immediately after the switch is thrown?

A) The electrons on the negative plate of the capacitor are held inside the capacitor by the positive charge on the other plate.

B) Only surface charge is held in the capacitor; the charge inside the metal plates flows through the resistor.

C)The electrons on the negative plate immediately pass through the resistor and neutralize the charge on the positive plate.

D)The electrons on the negative plate eventually pass through the resistor and neutralize the charge on the positive plate.
