The effective capacitance between points \(X\) and \(Y\) in the figure shown below is.
(Assume all the capacitors are \(4 \mu \mathrm{F}\) each)

  1. A \(3 \mu \mathrm{F}\)
  2. B \(1 \mu \mathrm{F}\)
  3. C \(4 \mu \mathrm{F}\)
  4. D \(2 \mu \mathrm{F}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(4 \mu \mathrm{F}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(C_1=C_2=C_3=C_4=C_5=4 \mu \mathrm{F}\) We can redraw circuit as; As it forms a balanced wheatstone bridge, \(C_2\) does not participate in the circuit. So, \(C_{X Y}=\left(C_4\right.\) series \(\left.C_3\right) \|\left(C_1\right.\) series \(\left.C_5\right)\)…
