Combination of Capacitors

The resultant capacity between points A and B in the given circuit is

Figure

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Start from the bottom right: the two lowest CC are both between the same node and the B line: C+C=2CC + C = 2C.
  2. In series with the 2C2C above: CC; in parallel with the next CC to the B line: 2C2C.
  3. In series with the top 2C2C: CC between A and B.
  4. In parallel with the left 2C2C: CAB=C+2C=3CC_{AB} = C + 2C = 3C.
  5. So the answer is (c) 3C.
