$A$ capacitor of capacitance $2 \mu F$ is charged with the help of a $60 \ V$ battery. After disconnecting the battery,if this capacitor is connected in parallel with another uncharged capacitor of capacitance $1 \mu F$,then the potential difference across the plates of the $2 \mu F$ capacitor is: (in $V$)

$A$ $20 \text{ F}$ capacitor is charged to $5 \text{ V}$ and isolated. It is then connected in parallel with an uncharged $30 \text{ F}$ capacitor. The decrease in the energy of the system will be: (in $\text{ J}$)
