    Question

    What is the total capacitance in the given circuit?

    A 7F Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 13 F Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 4.3 F Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 16 F Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    For the two 6 F capacitors connected in parallel, the resultant capacitance will be: Cnet = 6 + 6 = 12 F Also, the two 2F capacitors connected in series connection will be equivalent to a single capacitor of value: Cnet = 2/2 = 1 F  Since the 1 F and 12 F capacitors are connected in parallel, the net capacitance will be: Cnet = 1 + 12 = 13 F
