8.5 Exercise 28

Avg difficulty 2.5

(a) An 8.00-μF8.00 - \mu \text{F} capacitor is connected in parallel to another capacitor, producing a total capacitance of 5.00μF5.00 \mu \text{F}. What is the capacitance of the second capacitor? (b) What is unreasonable about this result? (c) Which assumptions are unreasonable or inconsistent?
