QNEET-2022-Ph-517: NEET 2022 Physics - Class 12 NEET-2022-Ph-517 Solution: The effective capacitances of two capacitors are \(3 F\) and…

The effective capacitances of two capacitors are 3μF3\mu F and 16μF16\mu F when they are connected in series and parallel respectively. The capacitance of two capacitors are: 1.2μF1.8μF1.2\mu F 1.8\mu F 10μF6μF10\mu F 6\mu F 8μF8μF8\mu F 8\mu F 12μF4μF12\mu F 4\mu F

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 1.2 μ\mu _ F, 1.8 μ\mu _ F
  • B 10 μ\mu _ F, 6 μ\mu _ F
  • C 8 μ\mu _ F, 8 μ\mu _ F
  • D 12 μ\mu _ F, 4 μ\mu _ F

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Here, 1 C 1 + 1 C 2 = 1 3 (Series combination) While, C 1 + C 2 = 16 (Parallel combination) Solving the above equations we get C 1 = 12 _ F and C 2 = 4 _ F
