Two parallel plates with dielectric slabs placed between them are as shown in the figure. The resultant capacity of the capacitor will be: [$A$ = area of plate,$t_1, t_2, t_3$ are thicknesses of dielectric slabs,$k_1, k_2, k_3$ are dielectric constants.]

  • A
    $\frac{A \varepsilon_0}{\left[\frac{t_1 + t_2 + t_3}{k_1 + k_2 + k_3}\right]}$
  • B
    $\frac{A \varepsilon_0(k_1 k_2 k_3)}{t_1 t_2 t_3}$
  • C
    $A \varepsilon_0 \left[\frac{k_1}{t_1} + \frac{k_2}{t_2} + \frac{k_3}{t_3}\right]$
  • D
    $\frac{A \varepsilon_0}{\left[\frac{t_1}{k_1} + \frac{t_2}{k_2} + \frac{t_3}{k_3}\right]}$
