Answer:
The final voltage across X is 
Explanation:
First we are going to obtain the equivalent capacitance for the whole circuit
to do this we will first find the capacitance of the capacitors connected in series
This can be mathematically evaluated as

Substituting values



Now the equivalent capacitance of the capacitors connected in series
which is connected in parallel to 
So the equivalent capacitance of the whole circuit is mathematically evaluated as
Substituting values
Now the total charge stores in these capacitors is mathematically evaluated as

Substituting values


When Switch
is closed the capacitor
do not current anymore which implies that it has been excluded from the circuit
Hence the equivalent capacitance becomes



Now at the point
is closed the Voltage across the capacitor
sis mathematically represented as




I don't know why the answer is D , because I can't see the list of choices.
The only way to get 8.0 Amps is by making a serious mistake.
The current in the second picture is 4.0 Amps.
If the resistors are identical, then the effective resistance of
two resistors in parallel is 1/2 the resistance of each one.
The resistance in the second picture is 1/2 the resistance
in the first picture.
Current = (voltage) / (resistance)
Cutting the resistance in half causes the current to double.
If the current was 2.0 Amps in the first picture, it's 4.0 Amps
in the second picture.
Yes, that's correct. That's a big part of the reason why
the soap floats in water and the sponge sinks in it.
