  • A
    all in series
  • B
    all in parallel
  • C
    two in parallel and one in series
  • D
    two in series and one in parallel

$A$ parallel combination of two capacitors of capacities $2C$ and $C$ is connected across a $5 \text{ V}$ battery. When they are fully charged,the charges and energies stored in them are $Q_1, Q_2$ and $E_1, E_2$ respectively. Then $\frac{E_1-E_2}{Q_1-Q_2}$ in $\text{J/C}$ is (capacity is in Farad,charge in Coulomb and energy in $\text{J}$)
