Find the equivalent capacitance with respect to the terminals a,b

Determine the the initial voltage drop for the equivalent capacitance with respect to the terminals a, b

The image shows a circuit diagram with several capacitors arranged both in series and parallel connections. The diagram includes the following components:

1. **Capacitors and Voltages:**
   - A 10 V source connected to a 5 µF capacitor.
   - A 24 µF capacitor labeled as \( C_2 \).
   - A set of capacitors connected to form a network between points 'a' and 'b':
     - 30 µF capacitor connected in parallel with the 24 µF capacitor, both having a 20 V potential difference across them.
     - A 12 µF capacitor connected in parallel with a voltage of 8 V.
   - A 5 V source connected in series with a 36 µF capacitor.
   - An 18 µF capacitor with a voltage of 2 V across it.

2. **Connections:**
   - Node 'b' is connected to the negative side of the 5 µF capacitor and the 10 V source.
   - Node 'a' is connected to the negative side of the 30 µF capacitor and the positive side of the 20 V source.

3. **Voltage Sources:**
   - Various capacitors are connected with applied voltage differences: 10 V, 20 V, 5 V, 8 V, and 2 V.

This circuit is designed to illustrate principles related to capacitors in series and parallel circuits, involving capacitance values and voltage supplies.
