Capacitors in Series and Parallel

Numerical Examples

Capacitors in Series

Find: everything!

the equivalent capacitance C_eq

the charge Q on each capacitor

the voltage across each capcitor

the energy stored in each capcitor

the energy stored in C_eq

This would be the charge on the equivalent capacitor.

This is the charge on each capacitor.
