    In the following circuit, the resultant capacitance between A and B is \[1\mu F\]. Then value of C is

    A) \[\frac{32}{11}\mu F\]               

    B) \[\frac{11}{32}\mu F\]

    C) \[\frac{23}{32}\mu F\]

    D) \[\frac{32}{23}\mu F\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[12\mu F\]and \[6\mu F\]are in sense and again are in parallel with \[4\mu F\].
    Therefore, resultant of these three will be \[=\frac{12\times 6}{12+6}+4=4+4=8\mu F\]
     
    This equivalent system is in series with \[1\mu F\].
    Its equivalent capacitance \[=\frac{8\times 1}{8+1}=\frac{8}{9}\mu F\]   ...(i)
    Equivalent of \[8\mu F,2\mu F\] and \[2\mu F\]
    \[=\frac{4\times 8}{4+8}=\frac{32}{12}=\frac{8}{3}\mu F\]                             .....(ii)
    (i) and (ii) are in parallel and are in series with C
    \[\therefore \,\,\frac{8}{9}+\frac{8}{3}=\frac{32}{9}\]and \[{{C}_{eq}}=1=\frac{\frac{32}{9}+C}{\frac{32}{9}+C}\Rightarrow \,C=\frac{32}{23}\mu F\]
