Find the final charge on each capacitor ...

Find the final charge on each capacitor if they are connected as shown in the figure.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let us find the resultant of two capacitors `C_(2) and C_(3)` in parallel to each other. It is `C_(p)=6+6=12muF`. Now capacitors `C_(1),C_p and C_(4)`, each of `12muF` are in series.

`therefore (1)/(C_(s))=(1)/(C_(1))+(1)/(C_(p))+(1)/(C_(4))`
`=(1)/(12)+(1)/(12)+(1)/(12)`
or `(1)/(C_(s))=(3)/(12) or C_(s)=4muF`.
`therefore` Resultant capacitance between A and B is `4muF`.
