Five capacitors, each of capacitance value `C` are connecteed as shown in the figure. The ratio of capacitance between `P` and `R`, and the capacitance between `P` and `Q`, is.

A

`3:1`

B

`5:2`

C

`2:3`

D

`1:1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`C_(PR)=C/2+C/3=(5C)/6`
`C_(PQ)=C+C/4=(5C)/4`
`implies (C_(PR))/(C_(PQ))=(5C)/6 xx4/(5C)=2/3`
