In the given circuit diagram, E = 5V, r = 1Ω, R _ 2 = 4Ω, R _ 1 = R...

In the given circuit diagram,

E=5V,r=1Ω,R2=4Ω,R1=R3=1ΩE = 5V, r = 1Ω, {R}_{2} = 4Ω, {R}_{1} = {R}_{3} = 1Ω and C=3\muFC = 3\muF

In the given circuit diagram, E = 5V, r = 1Ω, R _ 2 = 4Ω, R _ 1 = R _ 3 = 1Ω and C = 3 Then, what will be the numerical

Then, what will be the numerical value of charge on each plates of the capacitor.

Options

  1. A24μC24\mu C
  2. B12μC12\mu C
  3. C6μC6\mu C
  4. D3μC3\mu C

Correct answer

C. 6μC6\mu C

Step-by-step solution

Current will flow only through the branch containing resistance R2{R}_{2}

∴i=ER2+r=54+1=1A∴ i = \dfrac{E}{{R}_{2} + r} = \dfrac{5}{4 + 1} = 1A

Potential difference across R2{R}_{2}

=1×4=4V= 1 \times 4 = 4V

If qq be the charge on each plate of capacitor, then

qc+qc=4\dfrac{q}{c} + \dfrac{q}{c} = 4

or 2qc=4\dfrac{2q}{c} = 4

or 2q3×10−6=4\dfrac{2q}{3 \times {10}^{- 6}} = 4

q=6μCq = 6\mu C
