Given:
Capacitors in series: 10 μF, 15 μF, 20 μF
Potential difference V=13 V
Step 1: Equivalent Capacitance (Series)
$$\ \frac{\ 1}{C_{eq}}\ =\ \frac{\ 1}{10}\ +\ \ \frac{1\ }{15}\ +\ \ \frac{1\ }{20}\ =\ \ \frac{\ 6\ +\ 4\ +\ 3}{60}$$
$$C_{eq}\ =\ \ \frac{\ 60}{13}μF$$
Step 2: Charge in Series Combination
$$Q=Ceq⋅V=\ \frac{\ 60}{13}\times\ 13=60μC$$
Step 3: Charge on Each Capacitor
In series, charge is same on all capacitors.
Final Answer:
Q=60 μC
