Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following statements is true regarding capacitors in parallel? (2022)
  • Step 1: Understand what capacitors are. Capacitors are devices that store electrical energy.
  • Step 2: Learn about capacitors in parallel. When capacitors are connected in parallel, they are connected to the same voltage source.
  • Step 3: Know the formula for total capacitance in parallel. The total capacitance (C_total) is found by adding the capacitances of each capacitor together.
  • Step 4: Write the formula: C_total = C₁ + C₂ + ... where C₁, C₂, etc. are the capacitances of the individual capacitors.
  • Step 5: Remember that this rule applies only to capacitors in parallel, not in series.
