According to its design specification, the timer circuit delaying the closing of an elevator door is to have a capacitance of 31.0 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 33.6 µF. To meet the specification, one additional capacitor can be placed between the two points. (a) Should it be in series or in parallel with the 33.6 µF capacitor? in series in parallel (b) What should be its capacitance? 374 Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. µF (c) The next circuit comes down the assembly line with capacitance 30.1 µF between A and B. To meet the specification, what additional capacitor should be installed in series or in parallel in that circuit? 0.1 magnitude Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. „F orientation in parallel
