Question

6. 0.5/1.5 points Previous Answers OSColPhys1 19.P048.WA. Suppose you want a capacitor bank with a total capacitance of at least 1.029 F and you possess numerous 4.06 mF capacitors. (a) What is the smallest number you could hook together to achieve your goal? (Enter the smallest possible whole number of capacitors.) 253 What is the expression for the effective capacitance of two or more capacitors connected in series or in parallel? (b) How would you connect them? in parallel in series Supporting Materials Physical Constants

Explanation / Answer

here,

a)

C = 4.06 mF = 0.00406 F

let the number of capacitors required be n

for parallel combination

1.029 = n * C

1.029 = n * 0.00406

solving for n

n = 253.4 = 254 capacitors

b)

the total capacitance must be greater than indivisual , so

they are connected in parallel
