Solution Summary

The equivalent capacitance of 12 capacitors in hexagonal configuration is calculated using symmetry and series and parallel combination.

Solution Preview

Please see attached.

The circuit is shown in the figure. The circuit is symmetrical about the central line BOE and hence if the potential difference between points A and C is V, the potential of points B, O and E will be V/2. Thus the potential difference across capacitors between BO and OE will be ...
