For more Chapter 16 physics problems, see:

For the system of capacitors shown in the figure below, find the following. (Let C1 = 1.00 µF and C2 = 2.00 µF.)

(a) the equivalent capacitance of the system
_____µF

(b) the charge on each capacitor
on C1 _____µC
on C2 _____ µC
on the 6.00 µF capacitor _____µC
on the 2.00 µF capacitor _____µC

(c) the potential difference across each capacitor
across C1 _____V
across C2 _____V
across the 6.00 µF capacitor _____V
across the 2.00 µF capacitor _____V

Thanks so much I spent hours on this problem, trying to figure out those unknown variables

[Steve-zuex]

thanks for the clarification. you made my day mate

7:33 shouldn't it be (C1b * delta V)/(C1a + C1b)?

Messy and incoherent. Markedly inferior to the majority of Mike Birkhead's explanatory physics videos.

[MoniSmiles]

how do you know to go c1a and c1b together and not c1a and c2a???? I always confuse the order
