Question 492Electricity & Electronics - Assistant Engineer

The correct answer is B) one half. When capacitors are connected in parallel, the total capacitance is equal to the sum of the individual capacitances. Since the schematic shows equal individual capacitors, the total capacitance will be double the value of each individual capacitor. The other options are incorrect because: A) one fourth - This would be the case if the capacitors were connected in series, not parallel. C) double - This is correct, as explained above. D) quadruple - This is incorrect, as the total capacitance is only double the value of the individual capacitors.
