Learning Goal: To understand how to calculate capacitance, voltage, and charge for a combination of capacitors connected in series. Consider the combination of capacitors shown in the figure. (Figure 1) Three capacitors are connected to each other in series, and then to the battery. The values of the capacitances are C, 2C, and 3C, and the applied voltage is AV. Initially, all of the capacitors are completely discharged; after the battery is connected, the charge on plate 1 is Q.

PLEASE ANSWER BELOW. IT IS A RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS 1. A capacitor was made of aluminum foil strips which were separated by Mylar films. The capacitor was subjected to too much voltage and produced holes in Mylar films. The capacitance was still found to have the same magnitude but the voltage was lesser. Why do you think this happened? 2. Is there any kind of material that when inserted between parallel plate capacitors would reduce its capacitance?
1.What is the effect on charging and discharging times if the capacitance is increased? What mathematical relationship exists between your times and the capacitance? 2.

Direction. Answer each problem and show your solutions cleanly and clearly. Draw diagrams. 1. Three capacitors when connected in series gives an equivalent capacitance of 1.2 uF. When they are connected in parallel, the equivalent capacitance is 12.4 uF. The capacitance of the second capacitor is 1.5 times the first. Find the capacitance of each. Three capacitors when connected in series gives an equivalent capacitance of 1.2 uF. When they are connected in parallel, the equivalent capacitance is 12.4 uF. The capacitance of the second capacitor is 1.5 times the first. Find the capacitance of each. Answer: 4, 6, 2.4 uF
Would the first Capacitor be twice the voltage as the second in this case, Choice answer d? Then three times as much in the second case? Just wanted to make sense of this. Two capacitors have equal capacitance. If capacitor one is holding twice the amount of charge as the second capacitors, how do the capacitors voltage compare? a. The first capacitor has four times the voltage as the second b. The first capacitor has the equal amount of voltage as the second c. The first capacitor has half the voltage as capacitor two d. The first capacitor has twice the voltage as the second How about given that capacitor one is three times the charge as capacitor two?
Consider the circuit shown in (Figure 1). Assume E = 12 V. What is the equivalent capacitance? What is the charge on 3.0 μF capacitor? What is the charge on 4.0 μF capacitor? What is the charge on 6.0 μF capacitor?
Answer all questions below. These are not a graded questions, it is a research hypothesis. 1. A student claims that capacitors in parallel combination have greater equivalent capacitance compared to the magnitude of either the capacitor and less than either the capacitors when connected in series combination. How will you agree or disagree with the claim? 2. A capacitor was made of aluminum foil strips which were separated by Mylar films. The capacitor was subjected to too much voltage and produced holes in Mylar films. The capacitance was still found to have the same magnitude but the voltage was lesser. Why do you think this happened? 3. Is there any kind of material that when inserted between parallel plate capacitors would reduce its capacitance?j

Each capacitor in the figure below has capacitance C. What is the equivalent capacitance between points a and b? b. a. Tip: This circuit doesn't immediately break down into series and parallel capacitors. You'll need to approach it slightly differently in order to simplify the problem to a point where you can use those tools.
Determine the total capacitance, total charge, individual voltage drop and charges across each capacitor. Use two decimal places for your answer. Put your answer for the individual voltage and charge for each capacitor in a table for faster checking. Thank you!
