A) Capacitors C1 = 6.00 uF and C2 = 2.12 uF are charged as a parallel combination across a 260 V battery. The capacitors are disconnected from the battery and from each other. They are then connected positive plate to negative plate and negative plate to positive plate. Calculate the resulting charge on capacitor C1. B) Calculate the resulting charge on capacitor C2.
