Question

The equivalent capacitance between A and B in the given figure is:

• A. \( \frac{2}{3} \, \mu F \)
• B. \( 2 \, \mu F \)
• C. \( 4 \, \mu F \)
• D. \( \frac{4}{3} \, \mu F \)

Hint:

For capacitors in series and parallel, use the formulas \( \frac{1}{C_{\text{eq}}} = \frac{1}{C_1} + \frac{1}{C_2} \) for series and \( C_{\text{eq}} = C_1 + C_2 \) for parallel combinations.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

By combining the capacitors step by step in series and parallel, we find the equivalent capacitance between points A and B to be \( \frac{4}{3} \, \mu F \). Thus, the correct answer is option (4).
