Assertion : Two capacitors are charged from the same battery nd then connected as shown. A current will flow i ntil clock direction as soon as switch is closed.

Reason: In steady state charges on two capacitors are in the ratio 1:2.

A

If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

D

If Assertion is false but the Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Charge (or current) will not flow in the circuit as they have already the same potential, which is a condition of parallel grouping
Further,
`q_1/q_2=(C_1V)/(C_2V)=C_1/C_2=1/2`
