Three capacitors of different values are given. how should the be combined to give min and max capacitance?

The parallel connection gives us the maximum capacitance

Explanation:

Connection of Capacitors

Two capacitors can be connected in series or in parallel. If the capacitances are C1 and C2, and they are connected in series, then the equivalent capacitance is given by

Computing Ce

If the are connected in parallel, the equivalent capacitance is

Now it's easy to prove that  

Operating

Note both sides of the inequality are the product of two numbers. The right side multiplies C1+C2 by itself, and C1+C2 is greater than C1 or C2 alone, thus the product it greater too.  This analysis can be extended to more than two capacitors.

Thus, the parallel connection gives us the maximum capacitance

the chart show the masses and velocities of two colliding objects that stick together after a collision.

according to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the object after the collision is  

answer

1,500
