Three capacitors, a 12 μ F, a 20 μ F and a 30 μ F, are connected in series. What is the total capacitance?

A) 6 μ F
B) 62 μ F

Series Connection

An electrical circuit arrangement where components are connected end-to-end in a single path for current to flow.

Total Capacitance

In parallel circuits, it's the sum of individual capacitances of all capacitors, and in series circuits, it's calculated through the reciprocal of the sum of the reciprocals of the individual capacitances.

μ F

Microfarad, a unit of capacitance equal to one millionth (10^-6) of a farad, symbolized as µF.
