BITSAT2019PhysicsCapacitanceActual
When a capacitor is fully charged as shown in the following figure, then current drawn from the cell is
Options
- A1   mA
- B0 . 5   mA
- C2   mA
- D5   mA
Correct answer
B. 0 . 5   mA
Step-by-step solution
When capacitor is fully charged, then it acts like a open switch, therefore 8   kΩ resistor has no use. So, rest of the resistances 4   kΩ ,   7   kΩ and 9   kΩ will be in series. Hence, current drawn from cell I = 10 4 + 7 + 9 × 10 3 = 10 20 × 10 3 = 0 . 5   mA
