MCQ
What is the total charge on the parallel plate capacitor shown?
Image
  • A
    $2Q$
  • B
    $\frac{\text{Q}}{2}$
  • $0$
  • D
    $\frac{-\text{Q}}{2}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$0$
Since the total charge on a capacitor is given by sum of the charges on the two parallel plates, here charge on each plate is equal and opposite, hence $–Q + Q = 0.$ Therefore, the total charge on the capacitor is $0.$
