Detailed Solution
Before K1 opened the energy stored over capacity C1=12CV2=12×3×10−6×102=150 μJNow this energy will be dissipated E=i2Rt in the two resistors in the ratio of R1:R2 as they are in series (current flowing through the resistors is same) when switch K2 is closed.∴150 μJ is lost at the ratio 2:4=1:2In 2 Ω , 13rd of 150 μJ = 50 μJ and In 4 Ω ,23rd of 150 μJ=100 μJ will be lost.Therefore, the correct answer is ( B )
