Question

Ideal capacitors do not dissipate energy; they store it for use in the circuit. Capacitance is directly proportional to the area of the plates and inversely proportional to the distance between the plates. The total capacitance of several capacitors connected in series equals the sum of the individual capacitances. An ideal capacitor looks like an open circuit to dc current once it has charged to its final value. The insulating material between the capacitor plates is called a conductor. similar to resistor, when you want to increase capacitance, you would connect them in series. The ideal capacitor completely dissipates all energy supplied to it. What is the capacitance of a capacitor if 10 mu C of charge are present when 100 v are applied across its plates?
