An engineer has three different capacitors of unknown capacitance. She labels them C₁, C₂, and C3. First, she connects C₁ to a battery, and the charge on C₁ is q₁ = 32.2 µC. Then, she disconnects and discharges C₁, and connects it in series with C₂. When she connects this series combination of C₂ and C₁ across the battery, the charge on C₁ is 9₂ = 23.6 µC. The engineer disconnects the circuit and discharges both capacitors. Next, she connects C3, C₁, and the battery in series, which results in a charge on C₁ of 93 = 25.4 µC. If, after being disconnected and discharged, she connects C₁, C₂, and C3 in series with the battery, what is the charge on C₁ (in μC)? X
You measure the capacitance C1 of a capacitor by doing the following: First connect capacitors C1 and C2 in series to a power supply that provides a voltage V that can be varied. The capacitance of C2 is known to be 3.00 mF. Then vary the applied voltage V, and for each value of V measure the voltage V2 across C2. After plotting your data as V2 versus V, you find that the data fall close to a straight line that has slope 0.650. What is the capacitance C1?
