The given circuit can be simplified as under
Solution Image

V_{1} : 4 μ F

\frac{1}{3} rd

12 μ F

. Therefore,

V_{1}

is thrice of

10 V

30 V

V_{2} : 6 μ F

is half of

12 μ F

. Therefore,

V_{2}

is twice of

10 V

20 V

E = V_{1} + 10 + V_{2} = 30 + 10 + 20 = 60 V

Potential differences and charges on different capacitors in tabular form are given below.
