Combination of Capacitors: Practice Problem & Solution

Solution Explained:

To solve this problem, we apply the core principles of Combination of Capacitors. Understanding the underlying formula is key to arriving at the correct answer below:

Connecting two \(2\text{ }\mu\text{F}\) capacitors in series gives \(1\text{ }\mu\text{F}\). Adding the third \(2\text{ }\mu\text{F}\) capacitor in parallel to this combination yields \(1 + 2 = 3\text{ }\mu\text{F}\).
