What Is the Equivalent Capacitance Between Points a and B
(i) Show that effective resistance between A and B is 2 ohms.

What is equivalent resistance of infinite ladder?

⇒ R=1+2+R2R​ ⇒ 3R+2=R2+2R. ⇒ R2−R−2=0. ∴ R=2Ω​ (Here, Negative value can is rejected) Hence Equivalent resistance between points A and B is 2Ω.

Is equivalent capacitance and effective capacitance same?

Effective capacitance is the same as equivalent capacitance.
