Capacitors 2 µF, 3 µF and 5 µF are independently charged to 5 V, 20 V and 10 V respectively. After disconnecting the sources, their positive plates are joined at A and negative plates are earthed as shown. A 20 V battery and an initially uncharged 4 µF capacitor are then connected through switch S. After S is closed, answer the following.
