Two isolated conducting spheres $S_{1}$ and $S_{2}$ of radius $\frac{2}{3} R$ and $\frac{1}{3} R$ have $12\, \mu C$ and $-3\, \mu C$ charges, respectively, and are at a large distance from each other. They are now  onnected by a conducting wire. A long time after this is done the charges on $S_{1}$ and $S_{2}$ are respectively

$Q _{1}+ Q _{2}= Q _{1}+ Q _{2}^{\prime}=12 \mu C -3 \mu C =9 \mu C$

$\& V_1=V_{2} \Rightarrow \frac{K Q_{1}^{\prime}}{\frac{2 R}{3}}=\frac{K Q_{2}^{\prime}}{\frac{R}{3}}$

$Q _{1}^{\prime}=2 Q _{2}^{\prime} \Rightarrow 2 Q _{2}^{\prime}+ Q _{2}^{\prime}=9 \mu C$

$\Rightarrow Q _{2}^{\prime}=3 \mu C$

$\ \quad Q_{1}^{\prime}=6 \mu C$

    In the circuit shown, initially there is no charge on capacitors and keys $S _1$ and $S _2$ are open. The values of the capacitors are $C _1=10 \mu F , C _2=30 \mu F$ and $C _3= C _4=80 \mu F$.

    Which of the statement($s$) is/are correct ?

    $(1)$ The keys $S _1$ is kept closed for long time such that capacitors are fully charged. Now key $S _2$ is closed, at this time, the instantaneous current across $30 \Omega$ resistor (between points $P$ and $Q$ ) will be $0.2 A$

    $(2)$ If key $S _1$ is kept closed for long time such that capacitors are fully charged, the voltage difference between points $P$ and $Q$ will be $10 V$.

    $(3)$ At time $t =0$, the key $S _1$ is closed, the instantaneous current in the closed circuit will be $25 mA$.

    $(4)$ If key $S _1$ is kept closed for long time such that capacitors are fully charged, the voltage across the capacitors $C _1$ will be $4 V$.
