The video tutorial explains how to calculate the equivalent capacitance between terminals A and B in a network containing capacitors, a resistor, and a current source. The process involves connecting a voltage source between the terminals, applying Ohm's law, and calculating the impedance. The tutorial covers the steps to find the equivalent resistance and capacitance, considering the effects of all components in the network. The video concludes with a discussion on the inclusion of all capacitors' effects in the final calculation.
