A charge Q is placed on a capacitor of capacitance C. The capacitor is connected into the circuit shown in Figure P26.37, with an open switch, a resistor, and an initially uncharged capacitor of capacitance 3C. The switch is then closed, and the circuit comes to equilibrium. In terms of Q and C, find (a) the final potential difference between the plates of each capacitor, (b) the charge on each capacitor, and (c) the final energy stored in each capacitor. (d) Find the internal energy appearing in the resistor. Figure P26.37
A large parallel-plate capacitor is attached to a battery that has terminal potential (Fig. 27.15A). After a period of time, the capacitor stores charge Q so that its top plate is positive and its bottom plate is negative, and the potential difference between the plates is VC = . An I-shaped neutral conductor consisting of two parallel plates connected by a wire is slipped between the plates of the capacitor so that all four plates are parallel (Fig. 27.15B). What are the charges q1, and q2 on the plates of the I-shaped conductor? What is the potential difference VC between the top and bottom plates of the capacitor?
A Pairs of parallel wires or coaxial cables are two conductors separated by an insulator, so they have a capacitance. For a given cable, the capacitance is independent of the length if the cable is very long. A typical circuit model of a cable is shown in Figure P27.87. It is called a lumped-parameter model and represents how a unit length of the cable behaves. Find the equivalent capacitance of a. one unit length (Fig. P27.87A), b. two unit lengths (Fig. P27.87B), and c. an infinite number of unit lengths (Fig. P27.87C). Hint: For the infinite number of units, adding one more unit at the beginning does not change the equivalent capacitance.
Two capacitors, C1 = 18.0 F and C2 = 36.0 F, are connected in series, and a 12.0-V battery is connected across them. (a) Find the equivalent capacitance, and the energy contained in this equivalent capacitor. (b) Find the energy stored in each individual capacitor. Show that the sum of these two energies is the same as the energy found in part (a). Will this equality always be true, or does it depend on the number of capacitors and their capacitances? (c) If the same capacitors were connected in parallel, what potential difference would be required across them so that the combination stores the same energy' as in part (a)? Which capacitor stores more energy in this situation, C1 or C2?
Consider the circuit shown in Figure P26.24, where C1, = 6.00 F, C2 = 3.00 F. and V = 20.0 V. Capacitor C1 is first charged by closing switch S1. Switch S1 is then opened, and the charged capacitor is connected to the uncharged capacitor by closing Calculate (a) the initial charge acquired by C, and (b) the final charge on each capacitor.
