A 2 µF and a 4 µF capacitor are connected in series with an 18V battery.

a) What are Q and V across each capacitor?

b) Now take those same capacitors, unplug them from the battery carefully so as not to lose their charge, and connect them together in parallel instead. What are Q and V across each capacitor?
