Question
Physics Question on electrostatic potential and capacitance
The total capacity of the system of capacitors shown in the adjoining figure between the points A and B is
A
1μF
B
2μF
C
3μF
D
4μF
Answer
2μF
Explanation
Solution
The given circuit can be rearranged as
Now the equivalent capacitance of two 1 µF capacitors in parallel is given by
Ceq=1+1=2µF
