A capacitor C1 of capacitance $1\mu\text{F}$ and a capacitor C2 of capacitance $2\mu\text{F}$ are separately charged by a common battery for a long time. The two capacitors are then separately discharged through equal resistors. Both the discharge circuits are connected at t = 0.
  1. The current in each of the two discharging circuits is zero at t = 0.
  2. The currents in  the two discharging circuits at t = 0 are equal but not zero.
  3. The currents in the two discharging circuits at t = 0 are unequal.
  4. C1 loses 50% of its initial charge sooner than C2 loses 50% of its initial charge.
