Capacitances are additive when connected in parallel.
therefore,
C = c1+c2+c3+c4
therefore,
C = c1+c2+c3+c4

When capacitors are connected in parallel they are like connecting resistors in series so
net capacitance=c=c1+c2+c3+c4
=10+20+22+100
=152*10^-6F
net capacitance=c=c1+c2+c3+c4
=10+20+22+100
=152*10^-6F

Capacitors when connected in parallel can be added for total Capacitance.
C=C1+C2+C3+C4
C= 10+20+22+100
C=152Micro Farad
C=C1+C2+C3+C4
C= 10+20+22+100
C=152Micro Farad

Equavalent capacitance C=C1+C2+C3+C4
Hence C=10+20+22+100
C=152 micro farads
Hence C=10+20+22+100
C=152 micro farads

When capacitance are connected in parallel
The equation is c=c1+c2+c3+c4
Therefore c=10+20+22+100
c=152 micro farad
The equation is c=c1+c2+c3+c4
Therefore c=10+20+22+100
c=152 micro farad

c1=10,
c2=20,
c3=22,
c4=100.
C= ???
capacitance are connected in parallel,
than C=c1+C2+c3+c4
=10+20+22+100
=152 m.farad
c2=20,
c3=22,
c4=100.
C= ???
capacitance are connected in parallel,
than C=c1+C2+c3+c4
=10+20+22+100
=152 m.farad

Ans. D
C= C1+C2+C3+C4
C= 10+20+22+100
C= 152 micro farad
C= C1+C2+C3+C4
C= 10+20+22+100
C= 152 micro farad

For equivalent capacitacnce,
C=C1+C2+C3+C4
C=10+20+22+100
C=152 micro farad
So right answer is D.
C=C1+C2+C3+C4
C=10+20+22+100
C=152 micro farad
So right answer is D.

Simply resistance added directly in series and capacitance are added directly into parallel.
Capacitance=c1+c2+c3+c4.
=10+20+22+100.
=152uf.
Capacitance=c1+c2+c3+c4.
=10+20+22+100.
=152uf.

You add capacitors in parallel.
Total capacitance=10+20+22+100.
152uF - Right answer.
Total capacitance=10+20+22+100.
152uF - Right answer.
