Verified by Experts

Given `E = 24V, R = 2Omega, R_1 = 4Omega , R_2= 6Omega, C_1 = (4//3)muF,`
`C_2 =4muF.` As the capacitor offers a very high resistance to the
current in the steady state, so the current is prevented to pass
through the capacitors. Now, the total resistance in the circuit
is
`R_(eq) = R + R_1+R_2 = 2 +4+6 = 12 Omega`
Hence, the net current in the circuit is
`(E)/(R_(eq)) = (24)/(12) =2A`
Therefore, the terminal potential differecne across is
`AB =24 - 2xx2 = 20V.`
