Capacitors in Series/Parallel

40. minimum C = 1.36 x 10^-9F connected in series, maximum C = 1.95 x 10^-8F connected in parallel.

41. 300 pF connected in parallel.

42. C1 + (C2C3/(C2+C3)), Q on C1 = 562.5 microcoulombs, Q on C2 = Q on C3 = 375 microcoulombs

44
(a) For 0.4 microfarad capacitor, Q = 2 microcoulombs, V = 5 V
For 0.5 microfarad capacitor, Q = 2 microcoulombs, V = 4 V
(b) Both capacitors have 9V across them, For 0.4 microfarad capacitor, Q = 3.6 microcoulombs, 0.5 microfarad capacitor, Q = 4.5 microcoulombs

48. 5.128 pF
