Q. The effective capacitances of two capacitors are $3 \, \mu F$ and $16 \,\mu F$, when they are connected in series and parallel respectively. The capacitance of two capacitors are:

NEETNEET 2022Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance

Solution:

$\frac{ C _1 C _2}{ C _1+ C _2}=3$
$C _1+ C _2=16$
$C _1 C _2=48$
$C _1=12\, \mu F$
$C _2=4 \,\mu F$
