A `4 muF` capacitor is charged by a 200 V supply. It is then disconnected from the supply and is connected to another uncharged `2 mu F` capacitor. How much electrostatic energy of the first capacitor is dissipated in the form of heat and electromagnetic radiation ?

Explanation

To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the outlined procedure to find the electrostatic energy dissipated when a charged capacitor is connected to an uncharged capacitor.

### Step 1: Calculate the initial energy stored in the 4 µF capacitor.

The formula for the energy stored in a capacitor is given by:

\[
U = \frac{1}{2} C V^2
