Correct answer
D
Step-by-step explanation
For a capacitor at steady state
Since and are connected in parallel, .
Also from graph
$\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow \quad C_1 V_1 < C_2 V_2 \\
& \text { i.e. } C_1 < C_2 \text { or } C_2>C_1 \\
& \qquad \frac{U_1}{U_2}=\frac{C_1 V_1^2}{C_2 V_2^2}=\frac{C_1}{C_2} < 1
\end{aligned}$
