In an circuit as shown in figure, both switches are open initially. Now switch is closed, kept open. ( is charge on the capacitor and is capacitive time constant).

Which of the following statement is correct?
Which of the following statement is correct?
Options
- AAt $t=\frac{\tau}{2}, q=C V\left(1-e^{-1}\right)
- BWork done by the battery is half of the energy dissipated in the resistor
- CAt
- DAt $t=2 \tau, q=C V\left(1-e^{-2}\right)
Correct answer
D. At $t=2 \tau, q=C V\left(1-e^{-2}\right)
Step-by-step solution
As switch is closed and switch is kept open. Now, capacitor is charging through a resistor . Charge on a capacitor at any time is $
