The equivalent capacitance of the combination shown is

The equivalent capacitance of the combination shown is

  1. 2 C
  2. 53 C
  3. C2
  4. 4 C

Solution

The potential difference across the branches EF & GH is zero. So, the equivalent capacitance will be only due to the combination of two capacitors in parallel.

Ceq=C+C

Ceq=2 C
