Question

In the figure given below the equivalent capacitance between A and B is : ​

Answer 1

Answer:

In series combination of capacitance we find the equivalent capacitance by adding the reciprocals of each capacitor while in parallel, we simply do the algebraic sum of all capacitors.

Answer 2

Answer:

The sum of the individual capacitance is known as equivalent capaitance in parallel.

capacitance in parallel=3+2=5micro farad

The sum of the reciprocal of the individual capcitance is known as the equivalent capacitance in a series.

capacitance in series=1/5+1/4=0.45
