there are two parallel plate capacitors C1 and C2 connected in series across a battery of emf V with a switch S. The capacitor C1 has some initial charge q0 while C2 is uncharged.
I have connected the positive terminal of battery (of emf V) to the positive plate of capacitor C1.
Final charge on the two capacitors that i got are:
Final charge on C1: q0 + (VC1 - q0)C2/(C1 + C2)
Final charge on C2: (VC1 - q0)C2/(C1 + C2)
is my answer correct?
