Electrostatics Question 758
Question: What is the effective capacitance between points X and Y?
Options:
A) $ 8\mu F $
B) $ 9\mu F $
C) $ 10\mu F $
D) $ 12\mu F $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
[a] By symmetry $ C _{5}=10\mu F $
Capacitor between B and C can be removed so, now
$ C _{eq}=\frac{8\times 8}{8+8}+\frac{8\times 8}{8+8}=8\mu F $
