Combination of Capacitors

Four capacitors each of capacitance 16 μF16\ \mu\text{F} are connected as shown in the figure. The capacitance between points AA and BB is: _________ (in μF\mu\text{F}).

Figure

Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.

Show answer and solution

Answer: 64

  1. The top wire joins the left end, the middle junction and the right end; these are all at B.
  2. The bottom wire joins the other two junctions to A.
  3. So each of the four capacitors has one plate at A and the other at B: all in parallel.
  4. CAB=4×16=64 μFC_{AB} = 4\times 16 = 64\ \mu\text{F}
  5. Answer: 64 μ\muF
