Questions  

A small signal voltage V(t)=V0 sin ωt  is applied across an ideal capacitor C

a
Current I(t) is in phase with voltage V(t)
b
Current I(t) leads voltage V(t) by 180°.
c
Current I(t) , lags voltage V(t) by 90° .
d
Over a full cycle the capacitor C does not consume any energy from the voltage source.

detailed solution

Correct option is D

(4): When an ideal capacitor is connected with an ac voltage source, current leads voltage by 900 . Since, energy stored in capacitor during charging is spent in maintaining charge on the capacitor during discharging. Hence over a full cycle the capacitor does not consume any energy from the voltage source.
