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.
