Question

The net charge on a condenser is :

A

infinity

B

q/2

C

2q

D

zero

Medium

Open in App

Solution

Verified by Toppr

Correct option is D)

Every condenser is made with two plates. The charge on one plate is $+ Q$ and other is $- Q$ . Thus total charge of condenser is $Q_{t} = + Q - Q = 0$
