Electrostatics Question 530
Five capacitors of $ 10\mu F $ capacity each are connected to a d.c. potential of $ 100\ volts $ in parallel. The equivalent capacitance between the points $ A $ and $ B $ will be equal to [CPMT 1986, 88; MP PMT 1999]
Options:
A) $ 40\mu F $
B) $ 20\mu F $
C) $ 30\mu F $
D) $ 10\mu F $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
In the given system, no current will flow through the branch CD so it can be removed. Effective capacitance of the system $ =5+5=10\mu F $
