- When a potential difference V is applied across several capacitors connected in series, the capacitors have identical charge q.
- The sum of the potential differences across all the capacitors is equal to the applied potential difference V.
- Capacitors that are connected in series can be replaced with an equivalent capacitor that has the same charge q and the same total potential difference V as the actual series capacitors.
- SERIES:
- Q is same for all capacitors
- Total potential difference =
- sum of V
