Four metallic plates,each of surface area (of one side) $A$,are placed at a distance $d$ apart from each other. The two outer plates are connected to a point $P$ and the two inner plates are connected to another point $Q$ as shown in the figure below. Then,the capacitance of the system is

  • A
    $\varepsilon_0 \frac{A}{2 d}$
  • B
    $\varepsilon_0 \frac{A}{d}$
  • C
    $2 \varepsilon_{0} \frac{A}{d}$
  • D
    $3 \varepsilon_{0} \frac{A}{d}$
