Two capacitors of $2 \mu F$ and $3 \mu F$ are charged to $150 \ V$ and $120 \ V$ respectively. The plates of the capacitors are connected as shown in the figure. $A$ discharged capacitor of capacity $1.5 \mu F$ is connected to the free ends of the wire. Then:

  • A
    charge on the $1.5 \mu F$ capacitor is $180 \mu C$
  • B
    charge on the $2 \mu F$ capacitor is $120 \mu C$
  • C
    charge flows through $A$ from right to left.
  • D

$A$ positive point charge of $10^{-8} \ C$ is kept at a distance of $20 \ cm$ from the center of a neutral conducting sphere of radius $10 \ cm$. The sphere is then grounded and the charge on the sphere is measured. The grounding is then removed and subsequently the point charge is moved by a distance of $10 \ cm$ further away from the center of the sphere along the radial direction.
