Three capacitors each of capacity 4μF4 \mu \mathrm{F} are to be connected in such a way that the effective capacitance is 6μF6 \mu \mathrm{F}. This can be done by:Three capacitors each of capacity 4 μ F are to be connected in such a way that the effective capacitance is 6 μ F .Three capacitors each of capacity 4 μ F are to be connected in such a way that the effective capacitance is 6 μ F .

Options

  1. Aconnecting all of them in series
  2. Bconnecting them in parallel
  3. Cconnecting two in series and one in parallel
  4. Dconnecting two in parallel and one in series

Correct answer

C. connecting two in series and one in parallel

Step-by-step solution

Three capacitors each of capacity 4 μ F are to be connected in such a way that the effective capacitance is 6 μ F .
CAB=(2+4)μF=6μF\begin{aligned}& \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{AB}}=(2+4) \mu \mathrm{F}\\ & =6 \mu \mathrm{F} \end{aligned}
