(Figure 1)In the figure are shown three capacitors with
capacitances
Ci = 6.00 µF, C2 = 3.00 µF, C3 = 5.00 µF. The
capacitor network is connected to an applied potential
Vab . After the charges on the capacitors have reached
their final values, the charge Q2 on the second capacitor
is 40.0 μC.

Capacitors C1 = 10 µF and C2 = 20 µF are each charged to 26 V,
then disconnected from the battery without changing the charge on the
capacitor plates. The two capacitors are then connected in parallel,
with the positive plate of C1 connected to the negative plate of C, and
vice versa
Afterward, what is the charge on each capacitor?
Express your answer using two significant figures. Enter your answers numerically separated by a comma.
