Question

The given circuit diagram is a complex network of capacitors. To find the equivalent capacitance between points A and B, we can use the concept of balanced Wheatstone bridges and series/parallel combinations.

Answer 1

C

Answer 2

The circuit contains a balanced Wheatstone bridge formed by the four 'C' capacitors in the inner square. This allows the two central nodes ($N_2$ and $N_3$) to be at the same potential, effectively merging them into a single node. After this simplification, the circuit can be reduced by combining series and parallel capacitors step-by-step, leading to the equivalent capacitance of C.
