Question

When capacitors is arrange in series (3 capacitors), the equivalent capacitance C is

Answer 1

Answer:

Canceling the charge Q, we obtain an expression containing the equivalent capacitance, CS, of three capacitors connected in series: 1CS=1C1+1C2+1C3. This expression can be generalized to any number of capacitors in a series network.

Answer 2

Answer:

To find the equivalent resistance you need this equation:

$\frac{1}{Ceq} = \frac{1}{C1} +\frac{1}{C2} +\frac{1}{C3}$

Explanation:

You would plug in your capacitance values thus giving you the total (or equivalent) capacitance.
