Capacitor is series.

Lets say we have two capacitors in series. . The capacitance can be found as .

 

Example :

· Find total Equivalent capacitance and the total charge delivered by the voltage source .

· Find Voltages across each capacitor

 

 

 

Finding Total Charge

Qt=Ct x V

Finding Voltage Across Capacitors

Capacitor in Parallel

Two capacitors are said to be in parallel if they share two common terminal s

 

 

Example

Find total Capacitance

Verify Charge across all Capacitors

 

Ct = 100pF+220pF+50pF
Ct = 370 pF

Verify Charge across all Capacitors
