Question

For the circuit given. What is the charge stored on C3, in mC? The voltage source in the circuit has a potential different of 6 V.

C1 = 2.42 mF C2= 4.33 mF C3= 6.96 mF

Expert Solution

Step 1 :Introduction

The equivalent capacitance of capacitors $C_{1}$ and $C_{2}$ in parallel is calculated by using the formula $C_{p} = C_{1} + C_{2}$ and in series is calculated by using the formula $C_{s} = \frac{C_{1} \times C_{2}}{C_{1} + C_{2}}$ .

The charge on a capacitor is calculated by using the formula $q = C V$ , where V is the voltage . The charge across capacitors in series are the same while in parallel the charge will be different . The voltage across capacitors in parallel are the same while in series the voltage will be different .
