Four capacitors are connected as shown in the figure. Their capacities are indicated in the figure. The effective capacitance between points \[x\] and \[y\] is (in\[\mu F\]) [RPET 1997]
A) \[\frac{5}{6}\]
B) \[\frac{7}{6}\]
C) \[\frac{8}{3}\]
D) 2
Correct Answer:
C
Solution :
The given circuit can be simplified as follows Þ \[{{C}_{xy}}=\frac{2}{3}+2=\frac{8}{3}\mu F\]
