Example 5-6: Voltage Division. Figure 5-19(a) contains two resistors R1 and R2 connected in series to a voltage source vs. In Chapter 2, we demonstrated that the voltage vs is divided among two resistors. Derive the equivalent voltage-division equation for the series capacitor C1 and C2 in Fig. 5-19(b). Assume the capacitors had no charge on them before they were connected to vs.
