Column $I$ shows four situations of standard Young's double slit arrangement with the screen placed far away from the slits $S_1$ and $S_2$. In each of these cases $\mathrm{S}_1 \mathrm{P}_0=\mathrm{S}_2 \mathrm{P}_0, \mathrm{~S}_1 \mathrm{P}_1-\mathrm{S}_2 \mathrm{P}_1=\lambda / 4$ and $\mathrm{S}_1 \mathrm{P}_2-\mathrm{S}_2 \mathrm{P}_2=\lambda / 3$, where $\lambda$ is the wavelength of the light used. In the cases $\mathrm{B}, \mathrm{C}$ and $\mathrm{D}$, a transparent sheet of refractive index $\mu$ and thickness $t$ is pasted on slit $\mathrm{S}_2$. The thicknesses of the sheets are different in different cases. The phase difference between the light waves reaching a point $\mathrm{P}$ on the screen from the two slits is denoted by $\delta(\mathrm{P})$ and the intensity by $I(\mathrm{P})$. Match each situation given in Column $I$ with the statement$(s)$ in Column $II$ valid for that situation.

Column $I$	Column $II$
$(A)$ $Image$	$(p)$ $\delta\left(\mathrm{P}_0\right)=0$
$(B)$ $(\mu-1) t=\lambda / 4$ $Image$	$(q)$ $\delta\left(\mathrm{P}_1\right)=0$
$(C)$ $(\mu-1) t=\lambda / 2$ $Image$	$(r)$ $I\left(\mathrm{P}_1\right)=0$
$(D)$ $(\mu-1) t=3 \lambda / 4$ $Image$	$(s)$ $\left(\mathrm{P}_0\right)>I\left(\mathrm{P}_1\right)$
	$(t)$ $I\left(\mathrm{P}_2\right)>I\left(\mathrm{P}_1\right)$

In the circuit shown here $C_1=6\mu F,C_2=3\mu F$ and battery B = 20V. The switch $S_1$ is first closed. It is then opened and afterwards $S_2$ is closed. What is the charge finally on $C_2$

Switch $B$ can rest at either $1$ or $2$ as well as switch $A$ can rest at either $3$ or $4$ then output will be
