Capacitance and Circuits

A circuit consists of three capacitors connected in series with capacitances of $$C_1 = 2 \, \text{μF}$$ , $$C_2 = 3 \, \text{μF}$$ , and $$C_3 = 6 \, \text{μF}$$ . Calculate the equivalent capacitance of the circuit.

Consider a parallel circuit with two capacitors, $$C_1 = 4 \, \text{μF}$$ and $$C_2 = 5 \, \text{μF}$$ . If a third capacitor $$C_3 = 6 \, \text{μF}$$ is added in parallel, what is the new equivalent capacitance?

A student connects three capacitors in series: $$C_1 = 1 \, \text{μF}$$ , $$C_2 = 2 \, \text{μF}$$ , and $$C_3 = 3 \, \text{μF}$$ . They claim the equivalent capacitance is $$0.5 \, \text{μF}$$ . Evaluate the student's claim and provide the correct equivalent capacitance.

In a parallel circuit, the total charge stored is $$Q = 180 \, \text{μC}$$ when the voltage across the capacitors is $$V = 10 \, \text{V}$$ . If the circuit consists of two capacitors, $$C_1$$ and $$C_2$$ , with $$C_1 = 6 \, \text{μF}$$ , find the capacitance of $$C_2$$ .

A circuit has two capacitors in series, $$C_1 = 5 \, \text{μF}$$ and $$C_2 = 10 \, \text{μF}$$ . If a third capacitor $$C_3 = 15 \, \text{μF}$$ is added in parallel to the series combination, the overall equivalent capacitance is closest to what value?

When capacitors are connected in series, how is the total capacitance $$C_{eq}$$ calculated?
