Detailed Solution
Just before S1 is closed, the potential difference across capacitor 2 is 2ε.Just after S1 is closed, the potential differences across capacitors 1 and 2 arc 0 and 2ε respectively.If we take potential of C and D to be zero, then VA = ε, VB = 2εSince VB > VA, so current will flow i=2ε−εR1 =εR1 towards left
