Options

A. Series combination of
3
μ
F
and
6
μ
F
in parallel with
3
μ
F
B. Series combination of
3
μ
F
and
3
μ
F
in parallel with
6
μ
F
C. both A and B
D. can not be achieved

Answer

A

Explanation

We will connect series combinition of `3 mu r` and `6 muF` in parallel with the third capacitance of `3 muF`
`(1)/(C_(S)) = (1)/(3) + (1)/(6)` OR `C_(S) = 2 muf`
`C_(P) = 2 muF + 3 muF = 5 muF`
