Detailed Solution

qi=CiV=2V=q

This charge will remains constant after switch S is shifted from position 1 to position 2

Uf=12q2Cf=q22×10=q220

Energy dissipated =Ui-Uf=q25

The energy dissipated is 80% of the initial stored energy as % decrease in energy 

=Ui-UfUi×100% =q2/5q2/4×100% =45×100%=80%
