A 3.00 - 湩 and a 4.00 - 湩 capacitor are connected in series, and this combination is connected in parallel with a 2.00 - 湩 capacitor (see the figure ). What is the net capacitance?
3.00 - 湩 4.00 - 湩

2.00 - 湩

26.0 V

For the two caps in series, 1/C = 1/3 + 1/4
C = 12/7

For the two caps now in parallel, C = 2 + 12/7 = 26/7 = 3.71
