Six metallic plates,each with a surface area $A$ on one side,are placed at a distance $d$ from each other. The alternate plates are connected to points $P$ and $Q$ as shown in the figure. The capacitance of the system is:

  • A
    $\varepsilon_0 A/d$
  • B
    $5\varepsilon_0 A/d$
  • C
    $6\varepsilon_0 A/d$
  • D
    $\varepsilon_0 A/5d$
