Q103 / 125 · BITSAT 2021 · Physics
In a given network the equivalent capacitance between $A$ and $B$ is $C_{1}=C_{4}=1 \mu F, C_{2}=C_{3}=2 \mu F$.


- Correct answerA$3 \mu \mathrm{F}$
- B$6 \mu \mathrm{F}$
- C$4.5 \mu \mathrm{F}$
- D$2.5 \mu \mathrm{F}$
Solution
The equivalent circuit is shown in figure.

$\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{AB}}=1+\frac{2 \times 2}{2+2}+1$ $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{AB}}=3 \mu \mathrm{F}$

$\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{AB}}=1+\frac{2 \times 2}{2+2}+1$ $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{AB}}=3 \mu \mathrm{F}$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
