Three identical metal plates with large surface areas are kept parallel to each other as shown in the figure. The leftmost plate $A$ is given a charge $Q$ and the rightmost plate $C$ is given a charge $-2Q$. The middle plate $B$ is neutral. Then the charge appearing on the outer surface $S$ of the plate $C$ is:

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