Two capacitors `C_(1) "and" C_(2)` are charged to the same potential V, but with opposite polarity as shown in the figure. The switch `S_(1) "and" S_(2)` are then closed.

A

PDs across. Two capacitors are the same and is given by `((C_(1)-C_(2))V)/((C_(1)+C_(2))`

B

PDs across two capacitors are the same and is given by `(C_(1)V)/((C_(1)+C_(2))`

C

Ratio of final energy to initial energy of the system is `(((C_(1)-C_(2)))/((C_(1)+C_(2))))^(2)`

D

Ratio of final energy to initial energy of the system is `(((C_(1)))/((C_(1)+C_(2))^(2)))`
