PREVIOUS ANSWERS 3. [4.5/5 Points] DETAILS MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE ANOTHER Two capacitors, C = 16.0 F and C = 41.0 F, are connected in series, and a 24.0-V battery is connected across the two capacitors. (a) Find the equivalent capacitance. 11.51 UF (b) Find the energy stored in this equivalent capacitance. 3314.88e-6 (c) Find the energy stored in each individual capacitor. 2384.64e-6 capacitor 1 2.38e-3 J capacitor 2 Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 100%. J (d) Show that the sum of these two energies is the same as the energy found in part (b). This answer has not been graded yet. (e) Will this equality always be true, or does it depend on the number of capacitors and their capacitances? This equality will always be true. This equality depends on the number of capacitors. (f) If the same capacitors were connected in parallel, what potential difference would be required across them so that the combination stores the same energy as in part (a)? 10.78 V (g) Which capacitor stores more energy in this situation, C or C2? C2 The capacitors store the same amount of energy. Need Help? Read It Submit Answer
