104. Suppose that the three capacitors in Figure 16.22 havethe following values:C1=0.15F,C2=0.25F, andC3=0.30F a. What is the equivalent capacitance of thisarrangement? b. how much charge will be drawn from the battery? c. What is the voltage across each capacitor? 104.

a. What is the equivalent capacitance of thisarrangement? a. What is the equivalent capacitance of thisarrangement? Unfortunately I don't have access to Figure 16.22 but ingeneral: if capacitors are in series Ce = [1/C1 +1/C2 +..1/Cn) -1 if capacitors are in parallel Ce = C1 +C2 +...+ Cn - - b. how much charge will be drawn from the battery? since Q=CV just plug and play c. What is the voltage across each capacitor? b. how much charge will be drawn from the battery? since Q=CV just plug and play c. What is the voltage across each capacitor? The larger the capacitor the less voltage itwould have. Parallel capacitors it is easy. The seies is a bit tricky. Assume we have two capasitors inseries C1 and C2 then V1 = V C2 /(C1 +C2) and V2 = V C1 /(C1 +C2) Plese let me know if you have any further questions.Related Questions
