Question

Three condensor each of capacitance $$2\,F$$  are put in series. The resultant capacitance is

A. $$6\,F$$
B. $$\frac{3}{2}F$$
C. $$\frac{2}{3}F$$  
D. $$5\,F$$
Answer :   $$\frac{2}{3}F$$
Solution :
Capacitance are in series
$$\frac{1}{c} = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow c = \frac{2}{3}F$$
