The voltage across each capacitor in a set of capacitors in parallel is
A)directly proportional to its capacitance.
B)inversely proportional to its capacitance.
C)independent of its capacitance.
D)the same.
E)None of these is correct.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a set of capacitors in parallel, the voltage across each capacitor is the same because they are connected to the same two points in the circuit. Therefore, the voltage is independent of the capacitance of each capacitor.
