Three identical metal plates with large surface areas are kept parallel to each other as shown in the figure. The leftmost plate is given a charge $Q$,the rightmost a charge $-2Q$,and the middle one remains neutral. Find the charge appearing on the outer surface of the rightmost plate.

  • A
    $-Q/4$
  • B
    $-2Q$
  • C
    $-Q$
  • D
    $-Q/2$
