8.2 Exercise 12

Avg difficulty 2.5

A 2.0-μF2.0 - \mu \text{F} capacitor and a 4.0-μF4.0 - \mu \text{F} capacitor are connected in series across a 1.0-kV potential. The charged capacitors are then disconnected from the source and connected to each other with terminals of like sign together. Find the charge on each capacitor and the voltage across each capacitor.
