The equivalent capacitance of the combination shown in the figure is:

A

C/2

B

3C/2

C

3C

D

2C

Step-by-Step Solution

The equivalent capacitance of a network depends on the specific arrangement (series or parallel) of the capacitors shown in the figure (which is not provided).

General Rules:

  1. Parallel Combination: The equivalent capacitance is the sum of individual capacitances: Ceq=C1+C2+C_{eq} = C_1 + C_2 + \dots. For two identical capacitors CC in parallel, Ceq=2CC_{eq} = 2C.
  2. Series Combination: The reciprocal of equivalent capacitance is the sum of reciprocals: 1Ceq=1C1+1C2+\frac{1}{C_{eq}} = \frac{1}{C_1} + \frac{1}{C_2} + \dots.

Given the correct option is 2C2C, and assuming the individual capacitors have capacitance CC, the configuration likely involves two capacitors connected in parallel.
