Question: To repair a power supply for a stereo amplifier, an electronics technician needs a 100-F capacitor capable of withstanding a potential difference of 90 V

To repair a power supply for a stereo amplifier, an electronics technician needs a 100-μF capacitor capable of withstanding a potential difference of 90 V between the plates. The only available supply is a box of five 100-μF capacitors, each having a maximum voltage capability of 50 V. Can the technician substitute a combination of these capacitors that has the proper electrical characteristics? If so, what will be the maximum voltage across any of the capacitors used? (Suggestion: The technician may not have to use all the capacitors in the box.)
