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

  • A
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • B
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
  • D
    If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.

Answer

Correct option: C.
If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
c
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.
