Two capacitors of equal capacitance `(C_(1) = C_(2))` are shown in the figure. Initially, while the switch S is open, one of the capacitors is uncharged and the other carries charge `Q_0` The energy stored in the charged capacitor is `U_0` Sometime after the switch is closed, the capacitors `C_(1) and C_(2)` carry charges `Q_(1) and Q_(2)` respectively, the voltages across the capacitors are `V_(1) and V_(2)` , and the energies stored in the capacitors are `U_(1) and U_(2)` . Which of the following statements is INCORRECT ?

A

`Q_(0) =1/2 (Q_(1)+Q_(2))`

B

`Q_(1) = Q_(2)`

C

`V_1 =V_2`

D

`U_(0) = U_(1)+U_(2)`
