Solution

The correct option is B 1, 2, 3
$C_{p} = x + 2 x + 3 x = 6 x - - - - - (1)$
$\frac{1}{C_{s}} = \frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{2 x} + \frac{1}{3 x} = \frac{11}{6 x}$
$C_{s} = \frac{6 x}{11} - - - - - - - - (2)$
$C_{p} = \frac{60}{11} + C s$
$6 x = \frac{60}{11} + \frac{6 x}{11}$
$66 x - 6 x = 60$
$60 x = 60 x = 1 μ F$
$C_{1} = 1 μ F; C_{2} = 2 μ F; C_{3} = 3 μ F$
