Gives

C1=1μF,C2=0.1μF,C_1=1\mu F,C_2=0.1\mu F,

Both charged same potential mean connected is parallel combination

Potential =V

Charge


Q1=C1V=1×106×V=106VCQ_1=C_1V=1\times10^{-6}\times V=10^{-6} V C


Q2=0.01×106×V=108VCQ_2=0.01\times10^{-6}\times V =10^{-8}V C

Q1>Q2Q_1>Q_2

Q1. more intense electric shock if touched Because Q1Q_1 Is high camparision Q2Q_2
