COMBINATION OF CAPACITORS

Series and Parallel Combinations

We can combine several capacitors to obtain a system with some effective capacitance C.

In the combination, charges on the two plates (±Q) are the same on each capacitor. Effective capacitance with this combination

When two capacitors arranged in , the same potential difference is applied across both the capacitors. Effective capacitance with this combination
