Asked by Amanda C.

Two capacitors are connected in parallel as shown above. A voltage V is applied to the pair. What is the ratio of charge stored on C1 to the charge stored on C2, when C1 = 1.5C2 ?
how do you do this? ( The answer is 3/2)
Thanks for helping ; ) I appreciate that

This is the figure...

Capacitors in parallel have the same voltage V applied to each.

The stored charge on each is CV.
Since V is the same the ratio of charges is the ratio of capacitances, C.
Q1/Q2 = C1/C2 = 1.5
