Capacitors in Combination: The network shown is assembled with uncharged capacitors X , Y, and Z, with CX = 8.- ?F, CY = 9.- ?F and CZ = 1.0 ?F. The switches S1 and S2 are initially open, and a potential difference Vab = 120 V is applied between points a and b. After the network is assembled, switch S1 is then closed, but switch S2 is kept open. How much charge is finally stored in capacitor Y?
