Combination of Capacitors: Practice Problem & Solution

A combination of capacitors is set up as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the electric field, due to a point charge Q (having a charge equal to the sum of the charges on the 4μF and 9μF capacitors), at a point distant 30 m from it, would equal : Combination of Capacitors diagram: A combination of capacitors is set up as
