Question

A 10 µF, 20 µF, 22 µF, and 100 µF capacitor are in parallel. What is the total capacitance?

Answer 1

For capacitors connected in parallel, the total capacitance (also known as the equivalent capacitance) is just the sum of the individual capacitances:

C

e

q

=

+

C

2

3

...

For capacitors connected in parallel, it is like having a capacitor with a larger plate area, which allows it to hold more charge when connected to a certain voltage, which means that the total capacitance is larger.

For this question, you would just add the 4 different capacitances together.

Answer 2

For capacitors connected in parallel, the total capacitance (also known as the equivalent capacitance) is just the sum of the individual capacitances:

C1+C2+C3+C4

=10+20+22+100=152µF
