Assertion: In the circuit in figure, time constant of charging of capacitor is s`(CR)/2`


Reason: In the absence of capcitor in the circuit, two resistors are in parallel with the battery.

A

If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

D

If Assertion is false but the Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Capacitor and resistance in its own wire are directly connected with the battery. Hence, time constant during charging is `CR`.
