Electrostatics Question 529

Question: Three capacitors each of capacitance $ 1\mu F $ are connected in parallel. To this combination, a fourth capacitor of capacitance $ 1\mu F $ is connected in series. The resultant capacitance of the system is [MP PMT 1985]

Options:

A) $ 4\mu F $

B) $ 2\mu F $

C) $ \frac{4}{3}\mu F $

D) $ \frac{3}{4}\mu F $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

The circuit can be drawn as follows $ \Rightarrow C _{AB}=\frac{3\times 1}{3+1}=\frac{3}{4}\mu F $
