Question: You have two identical capacitors and an external potential source

Part A: Compare the total energy stored in the capacitors when they are connected to the applied potential in series and in parallel. Express your answer using one significant figure.

Part B: Compare the maximum amount of charge stored in each case. Express your answer using one significant figure

Part C: Energy storage in a capacitor can be limited by the maximum electric field between the plates. What is the ratio of the electric field for the series and parallel combinations? Express your answer using one significant figure.
