Three identical condensers are connected...

Three identical condensers are connected together in four different ways. First all of them are connected in series and the equivalent capacity is `C_(1)`. Next all of them are connected in parallel and the equivalent capacity is `C_(2)`. Next two of them are connected in series and the third one connected in parallel to the combination and the equivalent capacity is `C_(3)`. Next two of them are connected in parallel and the third one connected in series with the combination and the equivalent capacity is `C_(4)`. Which of the following is correct ascending order of the equivalent capacities ?

A

`C_(1) lt C_(3) lt C_(4) lt C_(2)`

B

`C_(1) lt C_(4) lt C_(3) lt C_(2)`

C

`C_(2) lt C_(3) lt C_(4) lt C_(1)`

D

`C_(2) lt C_(4) lt C_(3) lt C_(1)`
