Determine the equivalent capacitance of the circuit shown ### Capacitors in Parallel and SeriesThe diagram illustrates a complex combination of capacitors connected in both parallel and series configurations within an electrical circuit. Capacitors are devices that store electrical energy in an electric field and are characterized by their capacitance, measured in Farads (F). Here, capacitance is given in milliFarads (mF), where 1 mF = \(1 \times 10^{-3}\) F.#### Detailed Explanation of the Circuit- **Top Capacitor (Horizontally Aligned):** The circuit starts with a single 3mF capacitor at the top. - **Middle Row of Capacitors (Horizontally Aligned):** - The leftmost capacitor in this row has a capacitance of 1mF. - The middle capacitor in this row has a capacitance of 2mF. - The rightmost capacitor in this row has a capacitance of 3mF.- **Bottom Row of Capacitors (Horizontally Aligned):** - There are two parallel capacitors in the bottom row, each with a capacitance of 2mF.#### Series and Parallel ConnectionsThe configuration of these capacitors is as follows:1. **Parallel Configuration:** - The three capacitors (1mF, 2mF, and 3mF) in the middle row are connected in parallel. - The two capacitors (both 2mF) in the bottom row are also connected in parallel.2. **Series Configuration:** - The top 3mF capacitor and the parallel combination of the two 2mF capacitors are connected in series with the combined capacitances of the middle row capacitors.#### Calculating the Equivalent Capacitance1. **Parallel Combination of Middle Row (1mF, 2mF, and 3mF):** - The total capacitance \(C_p\) is calculated by summing the individual capacitances: \[ C_p = 1\,mF + 2\,mF + 3\,mF = 6\,mF \]2. **Parallel Combination of the Bottom Row (Two 2mF capacitors):** - The total capacitance \(C_{bottom}\) is calculated by summing the individual capacitances: \[ C_{bottom} = 2\,mF

HINT: You will probably want to start this problem by calculating the effective capacitance of the circuit. Make sure to appropriately account for what is in parallel and what is in series as you do; the most straightforward way to do this traditionally is to set up smaller effective capacitors one segment at a time until you have reduced the entire capacitor network to a single effective capacitor, then calculate the time constant.
