Two capacitors, C1 = 20 µF and C2 = 5.0 µF, are connected in parallel and charged with a 150 V power supply
A.) Energy Stored I found to be is 2.81*10^-1 J
B.)What potential difference would be required across the same two capacitors connected in series in order that the combination store the same energy as in (a)?
Delta V= sqrt of (2*Energy stored/C) This eqn can b used to solve for delta V
I have no idea what I am doing wrong! I have used the capacitor in parallel combo of C= C1+C2... Then I have converted the microFaraday charges of these sums to Faraday but no success
Any Suggestions??
