In the given figure,the capacitors $C_1, C_3, C_4, C_5$ have a capacitance of $4\,\mu F$ each. If the capacitor $C_2$ has a capacitance of $10\,\mu F$,then the effective capacitance between $A$ and $B$ will be.....$\mu F$.

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: In electrostatics, a conductor does not store any net charge inside.
Reason $R$: Inside the capacitor (with no dielectric medium), the free charge carriers, if placed between the plates of capacitor, experience force and drift.
