57) For this question, we need to find the equivalent capacitance for the above circuit. There are two crucial formulas for figuring out the equivalent capacitance. This problem will require using both and knowing when to use each one.
These equations should be adapted based on how many capacitors are in series or in parallel. Since there are 2 capacitors(C[2] and C[3]) in series, let's start with these.
Now, we can redraw the circuit, replacing C[2] and C[3] with C[2,3].
Now we can use the parallel circuit total capacitance formula to find C[1,2,3] which will be our equivalent resistance.
Answer: D
