MCQ
Each capacitor in the circuit shown is a $1F$ capacitor. What would be the equivalent capacitance between $A$ and $B?$
  • A
    $0.5F$
  • $F$
  • C
    $2F$
  • D
    $4F$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$F$

Equivalent capacitance of each pair of capacitance in series$=\frac{1\times1}{1+1}\text{F}=0.5\text{F}$
The two series combination are connected in parallel. Hence the net capacitance becomes $0.5F + 0.5F = 1F$
