Question

According to its design specification, the timer circuit delaying the closing of an elevator door is to have a capacitance of29.0 µF between two points A and B. When one circuit is being constructed, the inexpensive but durable capacitor installed between these two points is found to have capacitance 32.6 µF. To meet the specification, one additional capacitor can be placed between the two points.

(b) What should be its capacitance? ___µF

(c) The next circuit comes down the assembly line with capacitance 28.3 µF between A and B. To meet the specification, what additional capacitor should be installed in series or in parallel in that circuit?

Explanation / Answer

b) Ceq = 29 micro = c1c2/(c1+c2)

=> 29c + 29*32.6 = 32.6c

=> 3.6c = 29*32.8

=> c = 29*32.8/3.6 = 264.22 micro Farady Answer

c) we to increase capacitance. So we will connect 0.7 micro farady capacitor in parallel Answre
