Question

What would be the total capacitance of the circuit illustrated in figure "A" if the value of capacitor C1 was 100 microfarads and capacitor C2 was 200 microfarads?  EL-0038

Accepted Answer

Option D: 300 microfarads. Total capacitance for parallel capacitors is calculated by the direct algebraic sum of individual values. Adding C1 (100 microfarads) and C2 (200 microfarads) yields a total parallel capacitance of 300 microfarads in accordance with standard AC circuit principles.
