Detailed Solution

$60 μ F = \frac{\in_{o} A}{6} . . . . . . (1)$

$for second case C' = \frac{\in_{o} A}{6 - 3 (1 - \frac{1}{5})} = \frac{\in_{o} A (5)}{18} = \frac{\in_{o} A \times 5}{6 \times 3} = \frac{60 μ \times 5}{3} C' = 100 μF$

as the battery is removed charge remains constant

New potential $V' = \frac{q}{C'} = \frac{60 μ \times 250}{100 μ} = 150 V$
