Five capacitors each of capacity C are joined as shown in the following figure. If theire resultant capacity `C_(R)=2muF`, then the capacity of each capacitor is

A

`5muF`

B

`20muF`

C

`10muF`

D

`4muF`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

They are joined in series
`(1)/(C_(S))=(1)/(c)+(1)/(c)+(1)/(c)+(1)/(c)+(1)/(c)=(5)/(c)=(1)/(2)`
`therefore C=10muF`
