Answer:

There will be current running through the wires.

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. When the capacitor is connected to a battery, the capacitor will be charged.
  2. After the capacitor is charged, even without the battery, there will be current running through the wires when it is a closed circuit (the wires are connected)
