Problem

4\,\mu\text{F}

capacitor and a

6\,\mu\text{F}

capacitor are connected in parallel. This parallel combination is connected in series with a

3\,\mu\text{F}

capacitor across a

24\,\text{V}

battery. Determine: (i) the equivalent capacitance of the entire circuit. (ii) the potential difference across the

3\,\mu\text{F}

capacitor. (iii) the charge on each of the

4\,\mu\text{F}

and

6\,\mu\text{F}

capacitors.
