A battery is connected purely in parallel to three capacitors of C1 = 6 micro-farads, C2 = 9 micro-farads, and C3 = 11 micro-farads. Then, one additional capacitor of 8 micro-farads is added in parallel to the other three capacitors and due to this, the total stored energy of all the capacitors increases by 196 micro-joules (it is 196 micro-joules larger with four capacitors compared to with three capacitors). Then, the same four capacitors are connected in SERIES to the same battery. What is the voltage across the fourth, additional, capacitor, in Volts, when connected in series?
