JEE Advanced2006PhysicsAlternating CurrentActual
Paragraph: The capacitor of capacitance C can be charged (with the help of a resistance R ) by a voltage source V , by closing switch S₁ while keeping switch S₂ open. The capacitor can be connected in series with an inductor L by closing switch S₂ and opening S₁ . Question: After the capacitor gets fully charged, S₁ is opened and S₂ is closed so that the inductor is connected in series with the capacitor. Then,
Options
- Aat t=0 , energy stored in the circuit is purely in the form of magnetic energy
- Bat any time t>0 , current in the circuit is in the same direction
- Cat t>0 , there is no exchange of energy between the inductor and capacitor
- Dat any time t>0 , maximum instantaneous current in the circuit may V C L
Correct answer
D. at any time t>0 , maximum instantaneous current in the circuit may V C L
Step-by-step solution
From conservation of energy, 1 2 L I_ ^2= 1 2 C V^2 I_ =V C L
