need help with solution
A circuit contains a switch and two capacitors connected in parallel as shown in the picture. Before the switch is closed, there is a potential difference of 10 volts across capacitor C₁ = 1.6 F and 0 volts across capacitor C₂ = 1.3 F. After the switch is closed and C₁ shares its charge with C₂, what potential difference (in Volts) will the voltmeter read on either capacitor? You answer should be of one decimal place.
