Question

You are given four capacitors of capacitance 2.0uF each. How many different effective capacitors can you make with them using one, two, three, or all four in different configurations (in series and/or in parallel), and what are their capacitances?

Explanation / Answer

using one only one capacitor---> 2 uF using two two capacitors 1 series --> 2||2 ---> 1uF 1 parallel---->2+2 ---> 4uF 3 capacitors---> two capacitors + 1 capaciotrs hence two outcomes---> 1||4uF---> 0.8 uF 1+4 uF ----> 5uF 4 capacitors---> 0.8 || 2 and (0.8+2) 0.571 Uf and 2.8uF hence following are possible 2 uF 0.571 Uf and 2.8uF 0.8 uF,1uF,4 uF ,5uF
