Expert Solution
Check Mark
Strategy:

Capacitance is the ratio of the electric charge to potential difference on a conductor, i.e.

C=QV    (1)

 

Since the total voltage and charge remain constant, this condition along with algebraic rearrangement of definition (1) is used to find the equivalent capacitances of series or parallel combination of the capacitors.
