21 F


15 F


10.5 F


5.25 F


I don't know

Respuesta :

The equivalent capacitance of the circuit is 21 F.

What is a capacitor?

A capacitor is an electrical device that is used to store electric charge.

A capacitor can be connected either in series or parallel.

When capacitors is connected in parallel in a circuit, the total or equivalent capacitance in the circuit is the sum of the individual capacitance of each capacitors.

From the question,

Cₙ = C₁+C₂+C₃+C₄............. Equation 1

Where:

  • Cₓ = Equivalent capacitor

Given:

  • C₁ = 10 F
  • C₂ = 3 F
  • C₃ = 7 F
  • C₄ = 1 F

Substitute these value into equation 1

  • Cₓ = 10+3+7+1
  • Cₓ = 21 F

Hence, the equivalent capacitance of the circuit is 21 F.
