    Capacitors Worksheet

    Uploaded by

    tuvvac
    This document provides examples of calculating the energy stored by capacitors connected to batteries or in parallel configurations. It asks the reader to calculate: 1) The energy stored on individual capacitors given the voltage and charge, and to calculate the charge given the energy. 2) The equivalent capacitance and total energy stored for two capacitors in parallel. 3) The equivalent capacitance and total energy for three capacitors in a series-parallel configuration. 4) The equivalent capacitance and total energy for five capacitors in a more complex series-parallel configuration.
