Seven capacitors each of capacitance 2 ~F are connected in a configuration to obtain an effective capacitance 6 13 ~F . The combination which will achieve this will have
Options
- A5 capacitors in parallel and then 2 capacitors series.
- B4 capacitors in parallel and then 3 capacitors series.
- C3 capacitors in parallel and then 4 capacitors in series.
- D2 capacitors in parallel and then 5 capacitors in series.
Correct answer
C. 3 capacitors in parallel and then 4 capacitors in series.
Step-by-step solution
As required, equivalent capacitance should be, C _ eq = 6 13 ~F For combination of three capacitors in parallel and four in series, aligned & 1 C _ eq aligned = 1 3 C + [ 1 C + 1 C + 1 C + 1 C ]= C +12 C 3 C ^2 Required combination is 3 capacitors in parallel and 4 in series
