Find equivalent capacitance between terminals T1 and T2. You need to add an additional capacitor of 50 μF between nodes A and B. All capacitors are in μF. 

 

**Analysis and Description of Complex Capacitor Network**

This diagram illustrates a complex capacitor network consisting of several capacitors connected in both series and parallel configurations. The network includes two terminals, labeled T1 and T2, connected through capacitors of varying capacitances. Here’s a breakdown of the network:

### Capacitors Configuration:

1. **Between Terminal T1 and Point A:**
   - Capacitor with a capacitance of 12 μF is in series with an 80 μF capacitor.
   - Another capacitor with a capacitance of 40 μF is in parallel with the 80 μF capacitor.

2. **Between Point A and Point B:**
   - A capacitor with a capacitance of 60 μF.

3. **Between Terminal T2 and Point B:**
   - There is a 20 μF capacitor.

### Additional Capacitors Connected Between Points A and B:
   - 30 μF capacitor
   - 20 μF capacitor in parallel with a 30 μF capacitor
   - 10 μF capacitor connected in series with the parallel combination of the 20 μF and 30 μF capacitors.

### Detailed Description:
- **Series Connection:** Capacitors are connected end-to-end, and their overall capacitance (C_total) can be calculated using:
  \[
  \frac{1}{C_{total}} = \frac{1}{C_1} + \frac{1}{C_2} + \ldots + \frac{1}{C_n}
  \]
  For example, capacitors with 20 μF and 10 μF connected end-to-end.

- **Parallel Connection:** Capacitors connected side-by-side, with their overall capacitance being the sum of individual capacitances:
  \[
  C_{total} = C_1 + C_2 + \ldots + C_n
  \]
  For example, capacitors with 20 μF and 30 μF are in parallel.

### Calculation of Equivalent Capacitance (Step-by-Step): 

1. **Series Connections:**
   - The combined capacitance of the 80 μF capacitor in series with the parallel combination of one 40 μF and one 12 μF capacitors.

2. **Parallel Connections:**
   - Calculating the total capacitance of capacitors in parallel between point A to point B.
