Two capacitors in parallel:
ANo change
BMultiply
CJust add: C_eq = C1 + C2 (like resistors in series)
DReciprocals add
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Just add: C_eq = C1 + C2 (like resistors in series)
Capacitors in parallel: C_eq = ΣC_i. Same voltage across all. Charges add. Like resistors in series (reversed analogy). Q = CV; with more C, more Q for same V.
