$A$ parallel plate capacitor of capacitance $C$ is connected to a battery and charged to a potential difference $V$. Another capacitor of capacitance $3C$ is similarly charged to a potential difference $3V$. The charging battery is then disconnected and the capacitors are connected in parallel to each other in such a way that the positive terminal of one is connected to the negative terminal of the other. The final energy of the configuration is

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: In electrostatics, a conductor does not store any net charge inside.
Reason $R$: Inside the capacitor (with no dielectric medium), the free charge carriers, if placed between the plates of capacitor, experience force and drift.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Three uncharged capacitors of capacitances $C_1$,$C_2$,and $C_3$ are connected as shown in the figure. If $A$,$B$,and $C$ are at potentials $V_1$,$V_2$,and $V_3$ respectively,then the potential at point $O$ is:

Three capacitors $A, B$ and $C$ are connected with a battery of $emf$ $\varepsilon$. All capacitors are identical initially. If a dielectric slab is inserted between the plates of capacitor $A$ slowly with the help of an external force,then:

$A$ capacitor $A$ has a capacitance of $15\ \mu F$ when filled with a dielectric of constant $K = 15$. Another capacitor $B$ is air-filled and has a capacitance of $1\ \mu F$. Both are charged to $100\ V$. After charging, the dielectric is removed from capacitor $A$, and the two capacitors are connected in parallel. The common potential difference across them will be ... $V$.
