MCQ
The total capacitance of capacitors connected in parallel is given by _____?
- AProduct of the individual capacitors in parallel.
- BSum of all the individual capacitors in parallel.
- CSum of their reciprocals.
- DProduct of their reciprocals.
✓
Answer
- Sum of all the individual capacitors in parallel.
Explanation:
The equivalent capacitance of the capacitors connected in parallel is given by sum of their individual capacitances, that is if there are n capacitors in parallel the total capacitance is given by, C = C1 + C2 + C3 + C4 + ….. + Cn.
