How to Add Capacitors in Series and Parallel

In this video, I show how to create an "equivalent capacitance" which behaves exactly like the combination of capacitors both in series and in parallel, and I derive formulas for that equivalent capacitance in terms of the individual capacitances, which work for any number of capacitors.

This is part of my series on introductory electromagnetism, where we explore one of the fundamental forces of nature - how your phone charges and communicates with the rest of the world, why you should be afraid of the sun, and the fundamentals of electric and magnetic forces and fields, voltages,

It's nice to find someone explaining these topics at the same time I'm studying them. Keep up the good work mate

Well that explains nothing. Rather than 'explain' with formulas, why not use actual values?
For those looking for more practical info, try here. But watch the entire video, because the formulas shown above are relevant, especially when wiring in series.

Nope, it was well explained, I found the video rather helpful. You explain with formula and illustrate with values.
