In the given circuit, the initial charges on the capacitors are shown in the figure. The charge flown through the switches `S_(1) and S_(2)` respectively after closing the switches are

A

zero,`Q_0/6`

B

`Q_0/5,Q_0/2`

C

zero,`Q_0/2`

D

`3/5Q_0,Q_0/6`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Let `q(1)` charge flows through `s_(1)` and `q_(2)` through `s_(2)`. For capacitor of capacitance `2C`,
`Q_(o)+q_(1)=2CV=Q_(0)` or `q_(1)=0`
For capacitor of capacitance `C`.
`(Q_(0))/(3)+q_(2)=CV=(Q_(0))/(2)` or `q_(2)=(Q_(0))/(6)`
