A 2 μF capacitor is charged as shown in the figure. The percentage of its stored energy dissipated after the switch S is turned to position 2 is :



 

 

a
0 %
b
20 %
c
75 %
d
80 %

detailed solution

Correct option is D

Ui=12CV2=12×2×V2=V2 qi=2VWhen switch S is turned to position 22V−q2=q8⇒q=8V5 ∴Energy dissipated =V2−64V22×25×8+4V22×25×2=4V25
