So if i have 2 ideal capacitors in series, suppose the values are equal.
Assume theres no parasitic resistances.
----||-----||--------
and i apply 6v DC voltage accross them.
what is the voltage in the middle?
1. Its 3V by the capacitor divide? C/(C+C) . Is this valid for DC voltages?
Does this work because of charge sharing?
OR
2. Since the capacitors block off DC completely, the middle node remains
floating, and thus the voltage is undefined. ?
Which is right?
I'm not sure. I hope someone knows =)
