A $1.0 - \mu \mathrm { F }$ Capacitor and A $2.0 - \mu \mathrm { F }$

question 358

Short Answer

A $1.0 - \mu \mathrm { F }$ capacitor and a $2.0 - \mu \mathrm { F }$ capacitor are connected together, and then that combination is connected across a $3.0 - \mathrm { V }$ potential source (a battery). What is the potential difference across the 2.0- $\mu \mathrm { F }$ capacitor if the capacitors are connected (a) in series or (b) in parallel?
