Problem

A 2.0 μF2.0\,\mu\text{F}, a 3.0 μF3.0\,\mu\text{F}, and a 6.0 μF6.0\,\mu\text{F} capacitor are connected in parallel across a 12 V12\,\text{V} battery. What is the total charge stored by the combination? (a) 1.2×10−5 C1.2\times10^{-5}\,\text{C} (b) 1.3×10−4 C1.3\times10^{-4}\,\text{C} (c) 7.2×10−5 C7.2\times10^{-5}\,\text{C} (d) 1.6×10−3 C1.6\times10^{-3}\,\text{C}
