Two capacitors $C_1$ and $C_2 = 2C_1$ are connected with a switch $S$ as shown in the figure. Initially,the switch is open and the charge on capacitor $C_1$ is $Q$. Now,when the switch is closed,the final charges on the capacitors are:

  • A
    $Q, 2Q$
  • B
    $Q/3, 2Q/3$
  • C
    $3Q/2, 3Q$
  • D
    $2Q/3, 4Q/3$
