Question

11. Any company plans to connect a total of 20 pF of capacitance to a 7200-V

dine. To make this connection, four capacitors will be connected in series, What is

the capacitance of each capacitori

1 W

oche minimum ac

Answer 1

C = 80pF

Explanation:

The total capacitance of 4 capacitors connected in series is given by:

`Ct = (1)/(1/C1 + /C2 + 1/C3 + 1/C4)`

`Ct = (1)/(1/C + /C + 1/C + 1/C)`

`Ct = (1)/(4/C)`

`Ct = (C)/(4)=20pF`

Solving for C:

C = 4*20pF

C = 80pF
