MCQ
The equivalent capacitance of the combination shown in figure is:
- A$C$
- ✓$2C$
- C$\frac{\text{C}}{2}$
- DNone of these.
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
$2C$
Since the potential at point $A$ is equal to the potential at point $B$, no current will flow along arm $AB.$
Hence, the capacitor on arm $AB$ will not contribute to the circuit.
Also, because the remaining two capacitors are connected in parallel.
the net capacitance of the circuit is given by
$C_{eq} = C + C = 2C$
