The equivalent capacitance of n identica...

The equivalent capacitance of n identical capacitors in series is `C_(1)`. What will be the equivalent capacitance of their parallel combination?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The equivalent capacitance of the series combination is given by `1/C_(1) = n/C`, where C is the capacitance of each capacitor, `therefore C=nC_(1)`
The equivalent capacitance of their parallel combination.
`C_(2) = nC=n^(2) C_(1)`
