About this document
Capacitor Experiment: Series vs. Parallel by Tylon Thomas is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document describes an experiment to compare the behavior of capacitors connected in series and parallel by measuring their voltages and calculating charge, noting that capacitors in series have the same charge but lower total capacitance, while those in parallel have higher total capacitance and charge is the sum of individual charges. Students are instructed to test various capacitors using an ohmmeter and voltmeter, connect them in series and parallel to power LEDs, and observe the results.
