Question

1)Two capacitors, C1 = 4.44 ?F and C2 = 13.5 ?F, are connected in parallel, and the resulting combination is connected to a 9.00-V battery.

Find the equivalent capacitance of the combination.

Find the potential difference across each capacitor.

Find the charge stored on each capacitor.

2)Consider the following. (Let C1 = 16.40 ?F and C2 = 10.40 ?F.)

Find the equivalent capacitance of the capacitors in the figure.

Find the potential difference across each capacitor.

the equivalent capacitance of the system

(1) C1 and C2 are connected in parallel combination.

Equivalent capacitance, C = C1 + C2

C = 4.44 uF + 13.6 uF = 17.94 uF .......Ans

in parallel combination, PD across each branch will be same.

V1 = V2 = 9 Volt .......Ans

charge on C1, Q1 = C1 V1 =4.44uF x 9V = 39.96 uC

charge on C2, Q2 = C2 V2 = 13.5 x 9 = 121.5 uC ........ans
