The figure shows a network of five capacitors connected to a 100 V supply. Calculate the total energy stored in the network.
Let us calculate the Equivalent Capacitance, the Equivalent Capacitance of two Capacitor in parallel
Similarly, equivalent Capacitance of and
in parallel.
Now, the equivalent Capacitance of and
in series:
Hence, the net Capacitance will be:-
Now, the energy stored in the network:-
