If three capacitors each of capacity `1 muF` are connected in such a way that the resultant capacity is `1.5 muF`, then

A

All the capacitors are joined in series

B

All the capacitors are joined in parallel

C

Two capacitors are in parallel, while third is it

D

Two capacitors are in series, while third is in

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Combining two capacitors in series combination
`(1)/(C )= (1)/(1) + (1)/(1)`
`rArr C= 0.5`
Now, forming one capacitors in parallel with this combination, total capacity `-.5+1= 1.5`
