Question
Assertion : If three capacitors of capacitances $C_1 < C_2 < C_3$ are connected in parallel then their equivalent capacitance $C_P > C_S$.

Reason : $\frac{1}{{{C_p}}} = \frac{1}{{{C_1}}} + \frac{1}{{{C_2}}} + \frac{1}{{{C_3}}}$

Answer

If three capacitors are joined in parallel then their equivalent capacitor will be less than the least value of capacitor so

$C_p > C_s$

 $\frac{1}{{{C_p}}} = \frac{1}{{{C_1}}} + \frac{1}{{{C_2}}} + \frac{1}{{{C_3}}}$ is incorrect.
