Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
A
To find the equivalent capacitance of two capacitors connected in parallel, we use the formula:

$$ C_{eq} = C_1 + C_2 $$

Let the capacitances of the two capacitors be $C_1$ and $C_2$. Based on the information provided (although the exact values are not visible), let's assume:

$$ C_1 = C_1 \text{ (value from first image)}$$
$$ C_2 = C_2 \text{ (value from second image)}$$

To calculate the equivalent capacitance, we can directly add the two values. If the values of $C_1$ and $C_2$ are present in the images or further details are provided, we can compute the final value.

Hence, Option A contains the correct representation of the equivalent capacitance formula for capacitors in parallel.
