As you add more capacitors in series to a constant voltage source, the total energy in the circuit a. decreases b. increases c. stays the same d. all of the above

Respuesta :

Answer:

a. decreases

Explanation:

As we can infer from the equation, Q = CV

The energy stored in capacitor equation shows that Capacitance and Voltage are inversely related to each other provided that the charge remains constant. as we add more capacitors to the series combination of  capacitors at constant voltage, the overall energy stores in a capacitor decreases as the voltage provided by the source is constant.
