The effective capacitance between points X and Y in the figure shown below is. (Assume all the capacitors are 4 F each)
Options
- A3 F
- B1 F
- C4 F
- D2 F
Correct answer
C. 4 F
Step-by-step solution
Given, C₁=C₂=C₃=C₄=C₅=4 F We can redraw circuit as; As it forms a balanced wheatstone bridge, C₂ does not participate in the circuit. So, C_ X Y = (C₄ . series .C₃ ) | (C₁ . series .C₅ ) aligned & = (C₄+C₃ ) | (C₁+C₅ ) & =(4+4) |(4+4)=8 | 8 & = 8 8 8+8 =4 F & =2+2=4 F aligned
