Why option (c) cannot come ?? , If 2 are in parallel then 1+1 = 2 And then third in series So, 1/2 + 1 = 3/2 = 1.5

Q. If three capacitors each of capacity 1 μ F are connected in such a way that the resultant capacity is 1.5 μ F, then [MP PET 1989]

A) All the three are connected in series
B) All the three are connected in parallel
C) Two of them are in parallel and connected in series to the third
D) Two of them are in series and then connected in parallel to the third 

Dear student,Two will be connected in series and this combination will be connected in parallel to generate 1.5μF capacitance.for series, 1C=11+11C=12μFfor parallel, CNET=12μF+1μF=1.5μFRegards
