Question

use the same diagram for part b)

In the circuit below C1 = C2 = 8 uF, and C3 = 11 uF, the battery supplies 9 V. C3 G C2 + (a) Find the equivalent capacitance of the circuit. Select one: a. 27.00 uF O b. 16.00 uF c. 6.52 pF d. 15.00 UF

Answer 1

Dear Student,

In case of capacitor Combination, the formula of finding equivalent Capacitance is just inverse of resistance.

For Parallel Capacitors Combination.

For Ceries Capacitor Combination

$\frac{1}{C_{eq}}= \frac{1}{C_1}+\frac{1}{C_2}$

$C_{eq}= \frac{C_1C_2}{C_1+C_2}$

Now the calculation is as follows.....

Happy to help you.
