For the arrangement of capacitors in problem 10, find the equivalent capacitance in μF (microfarads) using C1 = 29.9 μF (microfarads) , C2 = (0.500) C1, and C3 = (0.400) C1 (Answer in 5 sig. figs.)
For problem 34 find U1 in mJ for C1 using capacitance values of C1 = 36.0 μF (microfarads) and C2 = (0.500) C1. All other values are the same as in the text. (Answer in 5 sig. figs.)
Two equal air-filled capacitors of Co- 15 µF are connected in series. A dielectric slab of constant K is inserted inside one of them to
fully occupy the space between the conductors. The equivalent capacitance of the combination becomes Ceq™ 13.68 µF. Find the
value of K.
