Answer to Question #315055 in Electric Circuits for Avi

Question

You have five(5) 10.0 Farad capacitors. Find the total capacitance if the capacitors are connected in series.

Answer 1

The net capacitance

$$\frac{1}{C_{net}}=\frac{1}{C_{1}}+...+\frac{1}{C_{5}}=\frac{5}{C}$$

$$C_{net}=\frac{10.0\:\rm F}{5}=2.00\:\rm F$$
