Question: C 1 = 1 0 . 6 F , C 2 = 7 . 7 F , and C 3 = 1 . 8 F

C1=10.6F,C2=7.7F, and C3=1.8F. The battery voltage is V0=12V.
14% Part (a) Enter an expression for the equivalent capacitance, C12, of the two capacitors C1 and C2 in terms of the variables given in the problem s C12=C1+C2
Correct!
14% Part (b) Using the result from Part (a), express the total equivalent capacitance, Ceq, in terms of C12 and C3.
Ceq=C12C3C12+C3
Correct!
14% Part (c) Calculate the numeric value, in microfarads, of the total equivalent capacitance.
14% Part (d) Express the charge, Q, stored in the circuit in terms of the equivalent capacitance, Ceq, and the potential difference across the battery, Q=Ceqv0
Correct!
14% Part (e) Calculate the numeric value, in microcoulombs, of the charge stored in the circuit.
14% Part (f) Express the energy stored in the capacitor in terms of the equivalent capacitance, Ceq, and the potential across the battery, V0.U=(12)CeqV02
Correct!
14% Part (g) Calculate the numeric value, in microjoules, of the energy stored in the circuit.
