Q.

Two capacitors each of capacity C are connected as shown in the circuit across a battery. W1 is the total energy stored in two capacitors when switch is closed. Now the switch S is opened and the two capacitors are immersed in a liquid of dielectric constant K, then the total energy stored in two capacitors is W2. The ratio of W1 and W2 is
