A capacitor of capacity `C_(1)`, is charged by connecting it across a battery of emf `V_(0)`. The battery is then removed and the capacitor is connected in parallel with an uncharged capacitor of capacity `C_(2)`. The potential difference across this combination is

A

`(C_(2)V)/(C_(1)+C_(2))`

B

`(C_(1)V)/(C_(1)+C_(2))`

C

`(1+(C_(2))/(C_(1)))V`
