1. Given three capacitors, C1 = 2.0 F, C2 =1.5 F, and C3= 3.0 F, what arrangement
of parallel and series connections with a 12-V battery will give the minimum
voltage drop across the 2.0-F capacitor? What is
the minimum voltage drop?

2. Suppose three parallel-plate capacitors,
whose plates have areas A1, A2, and A3 and
separations d1, d2, and d3, are connected in
parallel. Show, using only Eq. 242, that Eq. 243 is valid.

Point charges q1 = 51 µc and q2 = −27 µc are placed 1.0 m apart, with q2 on the right. what is the force (in n) on a third charge q3 = 19 µc placed midway between q1 and q2? (assume the positive direction is to the right. indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

Which of the following statements are true for an isothermal process? check all that apply. - during an isothermal process, the work done by the gas equals the heat added to the gas. - during an isothermal process, the internal energy of the system changes. - an isothermal process is carried out at constant temperature. - an isothermal process is carried out at constant pressure. - an isothermal process is carried out at constant volume.

If the pressure in a gas is doubled while its volume is held constant. true or false
