Four identical thin, square metal sheets, $S_1, S_2, S_3$, and $S_4$, each of side $a$ are kept parallel to each other with equal distance $d( < < a)$ between them, as shown in the figure. Let $C_0 = \varepsilon_0 a^2 / d$, where $\varepsilon_0$ is the permittivity of free space.
Match the quantities mentioned in $List-I$ with their values in $List-II$ and choose the correct option.
