(i) Figure 1.1 shows an electrolytic capacitor. What considerations should be made when using this type of capacitor in a circuit design? (ii) A 47 μF capacitor is charged by a 15 V supply. What is the energy stored in the capacitor? (iii) Explain how the capacitor in (b)(ii) can be combined with an identical capacitor so that the total energy stored is halved. Assume that the components are connected to a 15 V supply and provide a calculation to support your answer.
