Two metal spheres of capacitance $C_{1}$ and $C_{2}$ carry some charges. They are put in contact and then separated. The final charges $Q_{1}$ and $Q_{2}$ on them will satisfy

The potentials of two plates of a capacitor are $+10 \mathrm{V}$ and $-10 \mathrm{V}$. The charge on one of the plates is $40 \mathrm{C}$. The capacitance of the capacitor is

A $100 \mathrm{\mu F}$ capacitor is to have an energy content of $50 \mathrm{J}$ in order to operate a flashlamp. The voltage required to charge the capacitor is

The capacitance between the points $P$ and $Q$ in the following circuit, is

Four capacitors are connected as shown in the figure. The equivalent capacitance between $A$ and is $B$
