Disconnected from the battery and connected across a second

Reference no: EM13652759

A 0.9 µF capacitor is charged to a potential difference of 10.0 V. The wires connecting the capacitor to the battery are then disconnected from the battery and connected across a second, initially uncharged, capacitor. The potential difference across the 0.9 µF capacitor then drops to 2 V. What is the capacitance of the second capacitor? µF
