Question

A 10.0- mu F capacitor is connected in parallel with a 20.0 mu F capacitor across a 6.0-V battery, (a) What is the effective capacitance of this combination? (b) Find the charge on each capacitor. (c) Find the potential difference across each capacitor. A 10.0 mu F capacitor is connected in series with a 20.0 mu F capacitor across a 6.0-V battery. (a) What is the effective capacitance of this combination? (b) Find the charge on each capacitor, (c) Find the potential difference across each capacitor. Three capacitors have capacitances of 2.0, 4.0, and 8.0 mu F Find the effective capacitance (a) if the capacitors are in parallel and (b) if they are in series. A 3.0- and a 6.0- mu F capacitor are connected in series, and the combination is connected in parallel with an 8.0- mu F capacitor. What is the effective capacitance of this combination? A 1.0- mu F capacitor is connected in parallel with a 2.0- mu F capacitor, and the combination is connected in series with a

Explanation / Answer

(a) effective capacitor = 10 + 20 = 30 F

(b) Q1 = C1V = 10*6 = 60 C

Q2 = C2V = 20 * 6 = 120 C

(c) potential difference across each is 6V as they are in parallel
