How can I solve this?

You have three capacitors of values 40 F, 10 F and 50 F. What would their equivalent capacitance (in F) be if they were connected in parallel with each other? Enter your answer as a number only, to one decimal place.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equivalent capacitance of capacitors in parallel can be determined as


C_(eq) = C_1 + C_2 + C_3


\:\:\:\:\:= 40\:\text{F} + 10\:\text{F} + 50\:\text{F} = 100\:\text{F}
