Hello eveyone,
I have two simple questions, I would really appreciate if you could help me.
If you connect two capacitors together in series that have the same ratings, will the voltage double. Example - You have two 100uF caps rated at 25V each. If connected in series, could you charge it to 50V, and the capacitance would still be 100uF ???
2. Also, if you connect two transformers together in the followong way, what would be the result... Two identical step-up transformers with a 4:1 ratio, the primary coils are connected in parallel and the secondary coils in series. Would the ratio of the entire set up be 8:1, or would it just not work ???
I would really appreciate it if someone could clear this up for me.
Thanks,
George
