UPDATE 2025-2026
Two capacitors have C1 = 4 pF, C2 = 4 pF
an equivalent
capacitance of 8 pF if
connected in
parallel, and 2 pF, if
connected in series. Find C1
and C2.
The figure below shows 5
different ways to
connect a light bulb to a
battery with wires. Which of
the bulbs will light up?
Three resistors connected I(T) = I1 = I2 = I3
IN SERIES carry currents
labeled I1, I2, I3,
respectively.
Which of the following
expresses the value of the
total current I(T) in the
system made up of the
three resistors?
A solid, conducting sphere of r = 0 (center of the sphere)

many deaths is ventricular
fibrillation, an uncoordinated
quivering of the heart as
opposed to
proper beating. An electric
current discharges to the
chest can cause
momentary paralysis of the
heart muscle, after which
the heart will sometimes
start organized beating
again. A defibrillator is a
device that applies a strong
electric shock to the chest
over a time interval of a
few
milliseconds. Assume that an
ENERGY of 300 J is to be
delivered from the
defibrillator, having a 30.0
microFarad CAPACITANCE.
To what POTENTIAL
