Questions

The document discusses capacitors connected in series and parallel circuits. When capacitors are connected in series, the voltage across each capacitor must be the same but the capacitance of each remains the same. When capacitors are connected in parallel, the charge on each capacitor is the same but the voltage across each can differ. To design a capacitor with small size and large capacitance, the dielectric material and plate surface area must be considered.
