$\mathrm{C}_2>\mathrm{C}_1, \mathrm{U}_2>\mathrm{U}_1$
$\mathrm{C}_1>\mathrm{C}_2, \mathrm{U}_1>\mathrm{U}_2$
$\mathrm{C}_2>\mathrm{C}_1, \mathrm{U}_2<\mathrm{U}_1$
$\mathrm{C}_1>\mathrm{C}_2, \mathrm{U}_1<\mathrm{U}_2$

Explanation

JEE Main 2025 (Online) 28th January Morning Shift Physics - Capacitor Question 1 English Explanation

Since parallel combination, so v is same for both

we know, $q=cv$

$\Rightarrow q \propto C$ (for constant v)

we can see in the graph,

at final state, $q_2 > q_1$,

so $c_2 > c_1$

Now, as $$u = {1 \over 2}c{v^2} \Rightarrow u \propto c$$ (for constant v)

$$ \Rightarrow {u_2} > {u_1}$$

Hence, option 1 is correct.
