Question

A capacitor of 8 F is connected as shown in the figure. Charge on the plates of the capacitor, 32 C, 40 C, 0 C, 80 C

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

When the capacitor completely charged, there is no current passes through it. Current exists only in other branch.

I = \frac{V}{R_{e q}} = \frac{5}{1 + 4} = 1 A

The potential difference across capacitor

= 5 - 1 = 4 V

Charge stored in capacitor,

q

= C \times V = 8 \times 4 = 32 C
