Six capacitors each of capacitance 1 muF...

Six capacitors each of capacitance `1 muF` are connected as show in . Find the charge flowing in direction `1` as shown in the figure will be
.

A

`12 muF`

B

`6 muF`

C

`3 muF`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Equivalent circuit may be drawn as follows:

Hence `C_(eq)=6C muF`.
Charge supplied by battery is `q=6xx6=36 muF`. Hence, charge on each branch will be `12 muC` and so charge required capacitor is `6 muC`.
