The total capacitance of the circuit above is?

A.

0.25mF

B.

0.50mF

C.

0.75mF

D.

1.25mF

E.

1.50mF

Correct answer is E

 CTotal in parralel = C1 + C2 + C3
 CTotal = 2 + 2 + 2 → 6

C Total in series = 1 / C\(_1\) + 1 / C\(_2\) 

1 / C\(_T\) = 1/2 + 1/6

1 / C\(_T\) = \(\frac{4}{6}\)

cross multiply

C\(_T\) =  \(\frac{3}{2}\) or 1.5mF

What is the total resistance in the above diagram?

A.

5 ohms

B.

15 ohms

C.

25 ohms

D.

35 ohms

E.

45 ohms

Correct answer is C

Resistance in series will be given as R = 10+10 → 20

Resistance in parallel will be given as \(\frac{1}{R}\) = \(\frac{1}{10}\) + \(\frac{1}{10}\) 

\(\frac{1}{R}\) =  \(\frac{2}{10}\) → \(\frac{1}{R}\) = \(\frac{1}{5}\)

Resistance in parallel = 5

Total resistance = 20 + 5 → 25ohms
