After closing the key in the given circuit:
$(a)$ Bulb $(2)$ will glow and maintain its brightness.
$(b)$ Brightness of bulb $(1)$ will gradually decrease and at steady state it goes completely dark.

Under steady state condition, the potential difference across the capacitor in the circuit is . . . . . . $V$.

The capacitor $C$ is initially uncharged. Switch $S_1$ is closed for a long time while $S_2$ remains open. Now at $t = 0$, $S_2$ is closed while $S_1$ is opened. All the batteries are ideal and connecting wires are resistanceless. Find the $\text{INCORRECT}$ statement.
