Each capacitor has a capacitance of 10 nF and can withstand a maximum potential difference of 5.0 V each. You are given the task of designing a network of capacitors that can with stand a potential difference of 15 V, but with an equivalent capacitance of 10 nF using only the capacitors provided. You may use as many of the capacitors (well, up to 1000..) as you need, but to save money you should use the fewest number that will meet the requirements. Sketch your network in the space below. Indicate the points at which this network would attach to the potential difference.arrow_forwardPlease help mearrow_forward
