Finally, we can find the equivalent capacitance for capacitors in parallel. Again, we will do this by comparing the circuit with the two capacitors to one with a single equivalent capacitor, keeping $\Delta V_{bat}$ and $Q_{bat}$ the same in each circuit. From the node rule, we found: | Finally, we can find the equivalent capacitance for capacitors in parallel.
