The equivalent capacitance between \(A\) and \(B\) in the given circuit is

  1. A \(3 \mu \mathrm{F}\)
  2. B \(1 \mu \mathrm{F}\)
  3. C \(2 \mu \mathrm{F}\)
  4. D \(1.5 \mu \mathrm{F}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(1 \mu \mathrm{F}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to question, As we know that, Series equivalent capacitance, \( \frac{1}{C_{\mathrm{cq}}}=\frac{1}{C_a}+\frac{1}{C_b}+\frac{1}{C_c}+\ldots \) and parallel equivalent capacitance, \( C_{\mathrm{cq}}=C_a+C_b+C_c+\ldots \) Now, since \(C_4\) and \(C_5\) are in parallel.…
