The circuit which is given that can be rearranged as <img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="image" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/img/question/physics/24a7d14c4bba0286714ee723a355362d-.png" /> Now the resultant capacitance between A and B is given by CA B=(4 × 12/4+12)+2=3+2=5 μ F

Q. Four capacitors are connected in circuit as shown in the given figure. The effective capacitance between points $A$ and $B$ will be

$4 μ F$

$18 μ F$

$\frac{28}{9} μ F$

$5 μ F$

The circuit which is given that can be rearranged as

Now the resultant capacitance between $A$ and $B$ is given by
$C_{A B} = \frac{4 \times 12}{4 + 12} + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5 μ F$

Q. Four capacitors are connected in circuit as shown in the given figure. The effective capacitance between points A and B will be

4μF

18μF

928​μF

5μF
