What is the equivalent capacitance of these capacitors as they are arranged?


Sagot :

The equivalent capacitance of these capacitors as they are arranged in series and parallel will be 0.093 μF and 71.1 μF.

What is a capacitor?

A capacitor is a device that can store electrical energy. It is a two-conductor configuration separated by an insulating medium that carries charges of equal size and opposite sign.

If the capacitor is connected in the series the equivalent capacitance is found as;

[tex]\rm \frac{1}{c_{eq}} = \frac{1}{c_1} +\frac{1}{c_2} +\frac{1}{c_3} +\frac{1}{c_4} +\frac{1}{c_5} \\\\\ \rm \frac{1}{c_{eq}} = \frac{1}{10} +\frac{1}{50} +\frac{1}{9} +\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{0.1} \\\\\ \frac{1}{c_{eq}} = 0.1+0.02+0.11+0.5+10 \\\\ \frac{1}{c_{eq}} = 10.7 \\\\ c_{eq} = 0.093 \ \mu F[/tex]

If the capacitor is connected in parallel the equivalent capacitance,cₐ is found as;

cₐ= c₁+c₂+c₃+c₄+c₅

cₐ = 10+50+9+2+0.1 μF

cₐ =71.1 μF

Hence, the equivalent capacitance of these capacitors as they are arranged in series and parallel will be 0.093 μF and 71.1 μF.
