Each resistor in the following circuit has a resistance of `2 M Omega` and the capacitors have capacitances of `1muF`. The battery voltage is 3V. The voltage across the resistor A in the following circuit in steady state is

A

0 V

B

0.5 V

C

0.75 V

D

1.5 V

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
d. This is a dc circuit because the battery is the only source of voltage.
Hence, the capacitors behave like
open circuits. An equivalent circuit
is then two parallel sets of two
identical series resistors.
The voltage drop across
each parallel brabch must be the battery voltage of 3V.
Since the resistors are identical, there is an equal voltage
drop of 1.5 V across each resistor. In particular, there is a
drop of 1.5 V across resistor A.
