Capacitance and Dielectrics - Physics - Example 1

Five capacitors are connected across a potential difference Vab as shown in Fig. 24.2. Because of the dielectrics used, each capacitor will break down if the potential across it exceeds 30.0 V. The largest that Vab can be without damaging any of the capacitors is closest to:
Answer

30.0 V

6.00 V

579 V

64 V

150 V
