Vedclass · Answer

(D) The given circuit diagram represents a regular tetrahedron where each of the $6$ edges contains an identical capacitor. Due to the symmetry of the tetrahedron,if a potential difference is applied between any two vertices (nodes),the potential distribution across the remaining nodes will result in at least one capacitor having zero potential difference across it. Specifically,for any pair of nodes chosen as the source terminals,the symmetry ensures that there is always at least one capacitor that remains uncharged. Therefore,it is impossible to charge all $6$ capacitors simultaneously using a single source connected between any two points in this configuration.

Choose the correct statement for the given capacitor arrangement. (All the $6$ capacitors are of same capacitance)
