State two uses of capacitors in electrical circuits, other than for the smoothing of direct current.
The combined capacitance between terminals A and B of the arrangement shown in the figure below is
.
Two capacitors each have capacitance
and the remaining capacitors each have capacitance
. The potential difference (p.d.) between terminals A and B is
.
Determine the capacitance
.
Calculate the magnitude of the total positive charge transferred to the arrangement.
Use your answer in (ii) to state the magnitude of the charge on one plate of
a capacitor of capacitance
,
a capacitor of capacitance
.
