At 0-, no currrent flows through the capacitors because they are open, how did you combine the capacitors for the voltage divider since it is the capacitance value and not reactance, is it right? Can we just combine the capacitance value? Please explain. I did not understand..
Two capacitors give an equivalent capacitance of 9.00 pF when connected in parallel and an equivalent capacitance of 2.00 pF when connected in series. a.) What is the capacitance of each capacitor? b.) John was asked to design a capacitor in which small size and large capacitance were required. He said that he can achieve that by inserting a piece of paper between the plates. Do you agree with him? Why? Is there anything else that could be done to increase the capacitance?
