Two ceramic capacitors have the following parameters. One has capacitance C1 and ceramic thickness d1. The other has capacitance C2 and ceramic thickness d2. When the two are connected in series, the combination has a capacitance of:
A. C = d1 + d2
B. $${\text{C}} = \frac{{{{\text{d}}_1}{{\text{d}}_2}}}{{{{\text{d}}_1} + {{\text{d}}_2}}}$$
C. C = C1 + C2
D. $${\text{C}} = \frac{{{{\text{C}}_1}{{\text{C}}_2}}}{{{{\text{C}}_1} + {{\text{C}}_2}}}$$
