Questions  

In an LCR circuit as shown below both switches S1 and S2 are open initially. Now switch S1 is closed, S2 kept open. (q is charge on the capacitor and τ=RC is capacitive time constant). Which of the following statements is correct?

a
Work done by the battery is half of the energy dissipated in the resistor
b
At t=τ,q=CV/2
c
At t=2τ,q=CV1-e-2
d
At t=τ2,q=CV1-e-1

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Charge on the capacitor at any time t is given by q=CV(1−et/τ) At t=2τ⇒q=CV(1−e−2)
