Calculate the total capacitance of the seriesparallel capaci

Calculate the total capacitance of the series-parallel capacitor network in figure 2 to the right.

Solution

Answer B

Capcitance\'s in parallel

Equivalent Capacitance Ceq=C1+C2

Capacitnaces in series

   Equivalent Capacitance Ceq =1(1/C1+1/C2+1/C3)

In this circuit 2 capcitances of 5uF in parallel Equivalent is 5+5=10uF

Now circuit becomes three capacitances of each 10 uF in series

Total capacitance C_T=1/(1/10+1/10+1/10)=10/3 uF=3.3 uF

C_T=3.3 uF

Answer B
