# Capacitance

### Explanation of question 5

Three capacitors, of value 2nF, 3000pF and 0.005F respectively, are connected in parallel. An equivalent capacitor will have a value of

1. 10nF
2. 10pF
3. 1pF
4. 10 F

The answer is :- 1 Convert values to a common unit - the smallest unit is normally the simplest method. In this case convert all to nF. i.e. 2nF + 3nF + 5nF = 10nF
