• A. the magnitude of charge on the charged capacitor decreases.
• B. a steady state is obtained after which no further flow of charge occurs.
• C. the total charge remains conserved
• D. All of these

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

All of these

When a charged capacitor is connected with an uncharged capacitor, then:

1) the magnitude of a charge on the charged capacitor decreases.

2) a steady state is obtained after which no further flow of charge occurs.

3) the total charge remains conserved.

All options are correct.

The correct option is D.
