Q.

The plates of a capacitor are charged to a potential difference of 320 volts and are then connected across a resistor. The potential difference across the capacitor decays exponentially with time. After 1 second  the potential difference between the plates of the capacitor is 240 volts, then after 2 and 3 seconds the potential difference between the plates will be

Detailed Solution

V = {V_0}({e^{ - \lambda t}})    After 1 seconds

{V_1} = 320({e^{ - \lambda }}) \Rightarrow 240 = 320({e^{ - \lambda }})\, \Rightarrow \,{e^{ - \lambda }} = \frac{3}{4}     After 2 seconds
{V_2} = 320\,{({e^{ - \lambda }})^2} = 320 \times {\left( {\frac{3}{4}} \right)^2} = 180\,\,volt      After 3 seconds   

{V_3} = 320\,{({e^{ - \lambda }})^3} = 320 \times {\left( {\frac{3}{4}} \right)^3} = 135\,\,volt
