Jul 11, 2012 at 18:47 | comment | added | Bryan B | Federico, given a spherical cow on a frictionless surface :) (which is what your math is doing), why do you assume the voltage will end up at 1/2V? If the charge is constant, I'd imagine both caps would settle in at something more like 0.71V ... preserving the stored energy. | |
