Question

100 uF W A 56 and 100 uF Capacitor in Parallel Please watch the video below to find out how to wire this circuit. The schematic is also shown. 10 k D6 A7 TI 56 F Jumper wire to connect to ground GND

calculate the equivalent dapacitance and theoretical value of time constant. Has a 10 K resistor

Answer 1

10 k 100 u H HE 56 F

Answer: when $100\mu F and 56\mu F$ are in parallel.

then, equivalent capacitance is given by

C=C1 + C2 = 100uF + 56uF = 156F

Time constant of the circuit with capacitance,
C = 156uF
and $R=10\times 10^{3}\Omega$

is given by, $T =RC=10\times 10^{3}\times 156\times 10^{-6} =1.56 s$
