4uF
D
7uF
Text Solution
Verified by Experts
The correct Answer is:
A
The `10muF and 20muF` capacitors are connected in parallel. Their equivalent capacitance is `10muF+20muF=30muF`. We can replace the `10muF` and the `20muF` capacitors by a single capacitor of capacitance `30muF` between P and. This is connected in series with the given `30muF` capacitor. The equivalent capacitance C of this combination is given by `1/C=1/30muF+1/30muF` or, `C=15muF`.
