Capacitor basic calculations - In this video, How to calculate capacitance in series and parallel combination, capacitor charge, Energy stored in a capacitor, how capacitors work in DC electronics circuits has been explained with examples • Capacitors in series: • Connecting capacitors in series is equivalent to increasing the thickness of the dielectric. Hence combined capacitance reduces. • The charging current ( iC ) flowing through the capacitors is same for all capacitors as it only has one path to follow. • I = I1 = I2 = I3 ... etc • Therefore each capacitor will store the same amount of electrical charge, Q on its plates regardless of its capacitance. • QT = Q1 = Q2 = Q3 ….etc • Voltage across each capacitor is different being inversely proportional to its capacitance, • Sum of voltage across the capacitors equals the applied voltage • V = V1 + V2 + V3...etc • Combined capacitance = 1/C = 1/C1 + 1/C2 + 1/C3...etc • Capacitors are used in series to provide higher voltage break-down rating. • Capacitors in Parallel: • Connecting capacitors in parallel s equivalent to adding their plate areas, Hence combined capacitance increases. • Voltage across each capacitor is the same that is the applied voltage, • V = V1 = V2 = V3...etc • Charge across each capacitor is different, being directly proportional to its capacitance, The sum of the individual charges is equal to the total charge, • Q = Q1 + Q2 + Q3...etc • Combined capacitance = C = C1 + C2 + C3...etc • Charge stored in a capacitor Q = Capacitance C × Voltage V (Q = C × V), • Energy stored in a capacitor E = 1/2 CV^2. • This video will be helpful to all students of science and engineering in understanding the working principle of the capacitor. • #Series capacitors • #Parallel capacitors • Timestamps for various topics covered in this video are as follows: • 0:22 Introduction, • 1:00 Capacitors in Series, • 1:30 Charge and Energy stored in a capacitor, • 6:51 Example (Series capacitors), • 9:36 Capacitors in Parallel, • 12:36 Example ( Parallel capacitors) • 13:03 Example ( Series and Parallel Combination). • The links of related videos of Basic electronics • Conductors, Insulators, and Semiconductors • • Conductors, Insulators and Semiconduc... • Current, Voltage, and Power • • Current, Voltage and Power Explained ... • What is Resistor • • What is Resistor?
