Question: Two initially uncharged capacitors C 1 = C 1 = 8 FF and C 2 = C 2 = 1 6 FF are connected in

Two initially uncharged capacitors C1=C1=8 FF and C2=C2=16 FF are connected in series. Then, a 10-VV source is connected to the series combination, as shown in the figure.
(Figure 1)
[Hint: The charges stored on the two capacitors must be equal, because the current is the same for both capacitors.]
