The immediate cause of many deaths is ventricularfibrillation, an uncoordinated quivering of the heart, asopposed to proper beating. An electric shock to the chest cancause momentary paralysis of the heart muscle, after whichthe heart will sometimes start organized beating again. Adefibrillator is a device that applies a strong electric shock tothe chest over a time of a few milliseconds. The device containsa capacitor of a few microfarads, charged to several thousandvolts. Electrodes called paddles, about 8 cm across andcoated with conducting paste, are held against the chest onboth sides of the heart. Their handles are insulated to preventinjury to the operator, who calls “Clear!” and pushes abutton on one paddle to discharge the capacitor through thepatient’s chest. Assume an energy of 3.00 x 102 W ? s is to bedelivered from a 30.0 - µF capacitor. To what potential differencemust it be charged?
The switch S in Fig. 19-90 is
connected downward so that capaci-
tor C, becomes fully charged by the
battery of voltage Vg. If the switch is
then connected upward, determine
the charge on each capacitor after
the switching.

Using a 10 V power supply and two unknown capacitors (C
and C2), a PHY-102 students conducted the following
experiment: the capacitors were connected to the power
supply, first individually, then combined in series, and then
combined in parallel. In those experiments, the energy
stored in the capacitors were found to be, listed greatest to
least: 400 µJ, 300 µJ, 100 µJ, and 75 µJ. Of the two capacitors,
the smaller capacitance (in pF) is:
