The given circuit is a balanced bridge, so there is no current through PR

The circuit is

The equivalent capacitance

C_{eq}=\frac{10\times 20}{10+20}+\frac{5\times 10}{5+10}

        =\frac{20}{3}+\frac{50}{15}

        =\frac{150}{15}=10\; \mu F

When A and B are connected across 10 V, the charge q=CV=10\times 10 \; \mu C

                    = 100 \mu C
