Combination of Capacitors

When three capacitors of equal capacities are connected in parallel and one of the same capacity, capacitor is connected in series with the combination. The resultant capacity is $4.5\ \mu\text{F}$ . The capacity of each capacitor is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

Three in parallel: $3C$ ; in series with $C$ : $C_{eq} = \frac{3C \cdot C}{4C} = \frac{3C}{4}$ .
$\frac{3C}{4} = 4.5 \Rightarrow C = 6\ \mu\text{F}$
So the answer is (c) $6\ \mu\text{F}$ .
