Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a series of two capacitors (5 µF and 10 µF), if a potential of 100V is applied, find the voltage drop across each capacitor.

💡 Hint: Use charge conservation.

Challenge 2 Hard

Calculate the total capacitance for a configuration combining four capacitors: C1 = 2 µF in series with C2 = 4 µF, and this combination in parallel with C3 = 6 µF and C4 = 5 µF.

💡 Hint: Combine series first before adding parallel.
