A $60\; pF$ capacitor is fully charged by a $20\; \mathrm{V}$ supply. It is then disconnected from the supply and is connected to another uncharged $60 \;pF$ capactior is parallel. The electrostatic energy that is lost in this process by the time the charge is redistributed between them is (in $nJ$)
