The stored charge in the capacitor in steady state of the following circuit is ________ C.

Step-by-step solution

In steady state, the capacitor acts as an open circuit, meaning no current flows through the branch containing the 100 F capacitor. Consequently, no current flows through the 10 resistor in series with it on the top right. The voltage across the capacitor will be equal to the voltage across the 4 vertical resistor. Let's simplify the circuit to find this voltage. The 12 resistor on the left is in parallel with the 12 V battery, so the voltage across the rest of the circuit remains 12 V . For the rightmost part of t
