The charge on the capacitor 2 (C₂) is 48μF.

Explanation of the circuit diagram

In the circuit diagram, C₁ and C₂ are in series connection, while C₃ is parallel to C₁ and C₂.

  • Same charge flows in a series arrangement (charge on C₁ = charge on C₂).
  • Same voltage flows in a parallel arrangement (voltage on C₁, C₂ = voltage on C₃).

Charge on capacitor C₁ and C₂

[tex]Q_1 = Q_2 = Q\\\\V = \frac{Q}{C_1} + \frac{Q}{C_2} \\\\V = Q(\frac{1}{C_1} + \frac{1}{C_2} )\\\\Q = V (\frac{C_1C_2}{C_1 + C_2} )\\\\Q = 24 \times (\frac{6 \times 10^{-6} \times 3 \times 10^{-6}}{6\times 10^{-6} \ + \ 3 \times 10^{-6}} )\\\\Q = \frac{4.32 \times 10^{-10}}{9\times 10^{-6}} \\\\Q = 48 \ \mu C[/tex]

Thus, the charge on the capacitor 2 (C₂) is 48μF.
