There are two identical capacitors. The first one is uncharged and filled with a dielectric of constant $K$,while the second one is charged to potential $V$ and has air between its plates. If the two capacitors are joined in parallel,the common potential will be:

  • A
    $\frac{V}{K-1}$
  • B
    $\frac{K V}{K+1}$
  • C
    $\frac{K V}{K-1}$
  • D
    $\frac{V}{K+1}$

Two capacitors having capacitance $C_{1}$ and $C_{2}$ respectively are connected as shown in the figure. Initially,capacitor $C_{1}$ is charged to a potential difference $V$ volt by a battery. The battery is then removed and the charged capacitor $C_{1}$ is now connected to uncharged capacitor $C_{2}$ by closing the switch $S$. The amount of charge on the capacitor $C_{2}$ after equilibrium is
