How do you solve a circuit with a capacitor?
For example: The voltage across all the capacitors is 10V and the capacitance value are 2F, 3F and 6F respectively. Draw and label each capacitor with its charge and voltage. Once the voltage and charge in each capacitor is calculated, the circuit is solved. Label these information in the circuit drawing to keep everything organized.
How can we evaluate the total capacitance of a capacitor?
When capacitors connected in series, we can replace them by one capacitor with capacitance equal to reciprocal value of sum of reciprocal values of several capacitors’ capacitances. So we can evaluate the total capacitance. Total charge is directly proportional to the total capacitance and also to the total voltage (i.e. power supply voltage).
How many capacitors and power supply are connected in a circuit?
Three capacitors (with capacitances C1, C2 and C3) and power supply (U) are connected in the circuit as shown in the diagram. a) Find the total capacitance of the capacitors’ part of circuit and total charge Q on the capacitors. b) Find the voltage and charge on each of the capacitors.
How do you find the total capacitance of a series circuit?
