If we are talking about motherships, one mothership can take out several battlecruisers in one go.
Keep in mind that for all intent and purposes, it is much harder to keep one's self protected than it is to destroy your enemy. This is designed so people wouldn't turtle too much. Sure, they can make it so capital ships take three minutes to go down under any sort of attack, which would be realistic in a Sci-Fi setting. In Starcraft though, if any unit can survive under heavy fire for more then 20 seconds then it would already be considered godly. Yamato canons are classified as spells, which means Mothership's Black Hole generator still overpowers it.
