An isolated capacitor of unknown capacitance has been charged to a potential dissimilarity of 200 V. When the charged capacitor is disconnected from the battery and then connected in parallel to an un charged 10.0 µF capacitor, the voltage across the combination is gauged to be 20.0 V. Compute the unknown capacitance.
