MCQ
The equivalent capacitance of the combination shown in figure is:
  • A
    $C$
  • $2C$
  • C
    $\frac{\text{C}}{2}$
  • D
    None of these.

Answer

Correct option: B.
$2C$

Since the potential at point $A$ is equal to the potential at point $B$, no current will flow along arm $AB.$
Hence, the capacitor on arm $AB$ will not contribute to the circuit.
Also, because the remaining two capacitors are connected in parallel.
the net capacitance of the circuit is given by
$C_{eq} = C + C = 2C$
