Two capacitors, one that has a capacitance of 4 µF and one that has a capacitance of 12 µF are first discharged and then are connected in series. The series combination is then connected across the terminals of a 14-V battery. Next, they are carefully disconnected so that they are not discharged and they are then reconnected to each other--positive plate to positive plate and negative plate to negative plate. (a) Find the potential difference across each capacitor after they...
