Analyze the following capacitor circuit: Capacitors A and C are 2 F each. Capacitors B and D are 4 F each. The battery shown has a voltage of 9 V across its terminals. 9. Identify groups of capacitors (if any) in the circuit that are in parallel with each other: 9 V 10. Identify groups of capacitors (if any) in the circuit that are in series with each other: + D 11. Calculate the equivalent capacitance of the circuit by replacing each set of capacitors (either parallel or series) with an equivalent capacitor and redrawing the circuit. For example, if you decide that A and D go together, then redraw the circuit with A & D replaced by a single new capacitor labeled CAD and calculate its equivalent capacitance. You may want to redraw the circuit several times to show the intermediate steps. Analyze the following capacitor circuit: Capacitors A and C are 2 F each. Capacitors B and D are 4 F each.
