Capacitor of 6 microf is conected in parallel with the combination of 4 microf capacitor and a 3 microf capacitor that are in series.Find the net...

Since the capacitors 3 microF and 4 microF are in series
will be replaced by a capacitor that has the capacitance
Cs.


1/Cs = 1/4 + 1/3


1/Cs =
(3+4)/4*3


1/Cs = 7/12


Cs =
12/7


Now, the capacitor that has the capacitance Cs = 12/7
and the capacitor of 6 microF are in parallel.


The
capacitors will be replaced by the capacitor that has the capacitance
Cp.


Cp = 12/7 + 6


Cp =
(12+7*6)/7


Cp = (12+42)/7


Cp =
54/7 microF


The net capacitance is Cp = 54/7
microF.


Since the capacitor of 6microF and
the capacitor of 12/7 microF are in parallel, the potential difference of 20 V across 6
microF is the same across 12/7 microF, too.


Now, we'll
determine the charge through 12/7 microF capacitor:


charge
= voltage*capacitance


charge = 20V*(12/7)
microF


charge = 240/7
microC


The charge on the capacitors of 4 and 3 microF will
be the same, since they are in
series.


Potential difference across 3 microF
capacitor is:


240/7*3 = 240/21
= 80/7 = 11.4 V
