3. Three capacitors having capacitance of 30, 37.5 and 50 µF, respectively, are connected
in series and to 600 volt dc source. Calculate (a) the equivalent capacitance of the series
combination (b) the charge on each capacitor (c) the voltage across each capacitor.
4. After the capacitor of problem 3 are charged in series they are carefully disconnected
form the source and connected in parallel. Assuming no leakage of charge, calculate (a)
the charge on each capacitor (b) the equivalent capacitance of the combination (c) the
voltage across the combination
