Three capacitors connected in series across a battery.
Three uncharged capacitors with capacitances \(C_1 = C\), \(C_2 = 2C\), and \(C_3 = 4C\) are connected in series with an ideal battery of potential difference \(V_0\). The circuit is allowed to reach electrostatic equilibrium. Which of the following correctly ranks the potential differences \(\Delta V_1\), \(\Delta V_2\), and \(\Delta V_3\) across capacitors 1, 2, and 3, respectively?
