h. Calculate the total capacitance in parallel using the values for C₁, C₂ and C₁. Show your calculations. C1+C2+C3. I 1*10^-13+2*10^-13+3*10^-13 (1+2+3) 10^-13= 6*10^-13 i. Calculate the % Difference in capacitance between (g) and (h). 6*10^-13-6*10^-13/6*10^-13 6*10^-13*100=

b. Change the settings on the three capacitors to the following values. C₁=1.0 x10-13 F C₂= 2.0 x10-¹3 F C₁= 3.0 x10-13 F C. Now measure the voltage across each capacitor and record them below. V₁= 1.5 V/₂= 1.5 V3= 1.5 d. What is the relationship between the voltages when capacitors are in parallel? Capacitors connected in parallel will add their capacitance together. A parallel circuit is the best way to increase the total storage of electric charge. The total voltage rating does not change. Every capacitor will 'see' the same voltage, but not the same charge. e. Calculate the charge on each capacitor using the values for C₁, C₂ and C3. Show your calculations. 1*10^-13*1.5= 91 1.5*10^-13_ 2*10^-13*1.5= 92= 3*10^-13 3*10^-13 1.5- 93_4.5*10^-13 f. What is the relationship between the charge on the capacitors when connected are in parallel? When wired in parallel, each capacitor gets the same voltage. The charge on each capacitor might change, but the sum amount of positive and negative charge is the same as before. The charge on one of them is then independent of the others being present, so the total charge is q=V(A+B+C). The Voltages are the same and the charges are different. g.
