Question 243

What is the equivalent capacitance of two 5.0-nanofarad capacitors and one 750-picofarad capacitor connected in parallel?

  1. 576.9 nanofarads
  2. 1,733 picofarads
  3. 3,583 picofarads
  4. 10.750 nanofaradsCorrect answer

Explanation

Capacitors in parallel simply add, and 750 picofarads is 0.750 nanofarads, so 5.0 + 5.0 + 0.750 = 10.750 nanofarads. The other answers come from applying the series formula or from mixing up the picofarad and nanofarad units.
