Question
Which of the following statements regarding capacitors are true?1. If you connect three of the same capacitors in parallel, you get one third of the individual capacitance.
2. If you connect two capacitors in series, they have a higher capacitance than if you connected them in parallel.
3. If you connect three of the same capacitors in series, you get one third of the individual capacitance.
4. Two similar capacitors in series have half the capacitance of each individual one.
5. If you connect two charged capacitors in series, the voltage across both of them is the sum of the individual voltages.
