The potential difference across capacitors in series is divided inversely proportional to their capacitances. So, the equivalent capacitance of 5 μF and 15 μF in series will be 3 μF and then in series with 30 μF will be 2 μF. Using the formula of potential difference across capacitors in series, we get: V = V₀ * (Ceq/C) where Ceq is the equivalent capacitance of capacitors in series and C is the capacitance of the capacitor whose potential difference we want to find. Putting the given values in the formula, we get: V = 24 * (2/15) V = 16 V
