alleryCapacitors in series all carry:
AZero charge
BDouble charge
CThe same charge
DThe same voltage
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. The same charge
1. Charge flows until the connecting conductor has no net charge.
2. So each capacitor ends up with plus Q and minus Q.
3. Every capacitor in series carries the same charge.
