PAG 9.2 Investigating Capacitors in Series or Parralel Flashcards
1
Q
How can the combined capacitance of capacitors be calculated in series?
A
1/CT = 1/C1 + 1/C2…
2
Q
How can the combined capacitance of capacitors in parallel be calculated?
A
CT = C1 + C2…
3
Q
What must you ensure when working with electrolytic capacitors?
A
Electrolytic capacitors must be connected with correct polarity in circuit, check before switching on power supply
