Q

disconnect the battery and add a dielectric…

A
  1. Charge is trapped, Q = constant
  2. V decreases by a factor of K
  3. E decreases by a factor of K

Q

add a dielectric

A
  1. V does not change
  2. C increases, so Q increases by a factor of K
  3. E does not change
  4. PE increases by a factor of K

Q

in series, a larger capacitor has a LOWER voltage drop than a smaller capacitor

A

p. 1192

in series, all capacitors have the same Q (Q1 = Q2), their voltages can be determined afterward, V = Q/C
