- A
- B
- Correct answerC
- D
Solution
(i) When the switch is closed
Charge on each capacitor will be .
Energy
(ii) When the switch is opened charge on the right capacitor remain while the potential on the left capacitor remains the same.
Dielectric
Now to calculate ,
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
