Problem

A capacitor of capacitance C1=1.0 μFC_1=1.0\,\mu\text{F}, charged to a voltage V=110 VV=110\,\text{V}, is connected in parallel across a circuit consisting of two initially uncharged capacitors in series, with capacitances C2=2.0 μFC_2=2.0\,\mu\text{F} and C3=3.0 μFC_3=3.0\,\mu\text{F}. What charge flows through the connecting wires?
